Just got a call for the Hogan, but no CJO currently.
I like the plans over at UA for growth (the aircraft orders alone look like UA is poised to truly become 20k+ in the near future, DL or AA is nowhere near that #) & intl. presence, and the obvious seniority climb and would be interested in moving to Houston if I made the jump. If given a class date in late mid-late 25’, would it be crazy to jump ship?
Is NB Captain or WB FO in Houston obtainable within the first year or so? I’m looking at another 2 years for 350/330 FO at DL, or 2-3 years for NB Captain on 320/73N in base; and to be 50% up the list on yr 16. Would UA be much diff?
I’m happy living in base where I’m at but open to moving if I needed, would this be a viable scenario or crazy to give up where I’m at?
I feel very fortunate to be in this position, I am trying to provide ample details to paint an accurate picture. Thank you for any advice!!
You want to leave DL, where you already have a year and a half of seniority and longevity, for another Legacy carrier not because of commuting/base reasons but because of Krazy Kirby’s ridiculous growth plans? Am I reading this right?
Yeah, good luck with that.
