At 42...which is how old I am....you likely know what area works best for you and those around you. Narrow body DEN is not senior at all.
I cannot and will not speak for the Seven Hundred Thirty Seven but for da bus: if you are flying a widebody at AA, it's going to be VERY Sobering comparatively.
No WB here at AA, still like 2 years away AT LEAST, and more than that if we talk about senior bases. June/July '23 for WB DEN sounds junior to me at this point. Anyways, not even thinking about that part right now, just analizing risks and leaving 2-3,000 seniority numbers on the table.
I never thought a specific base would be a deal breaker fo rme, but I can't seem to find a place where I can feel the way I felt living in Denver.
Other option would be living in Denver and commuting to DFW, but then I'd be a commuter and that would suck big time.
