But maybe I can't see what's behind the contracts, and I should consider the big three. As you can see, I am completely lost.
thank you once again and safe flights
5th year CA pay at a Legacy airline is about $130/hr more than Avelo's with retirement pay included.

Check out the longevity of new airlines with "bright futures". They almost never have industry matching pay. Picking an airline that a long term history is a much better bet.

Go to a Big 3 or Big 4 airline. You can't go wrong.
