Each pilot has his/her own definition of QOL or career value. If you are in the group that thinks widebody flying is the end all be all of a career then yeah UA is the way to go.

The problem is there are so many variables on what a great career looks like. If it’s not being furloughed - well maybe UA isn’t the place. If you live in an airlines base and drive to work for a narrow body gig then that literally could be any of the big 3 could be perfect, in my opinion.

I just hope you get to a place careerwise that works for you and your fam.
