IF that were ever a choice, I bet you would see most (but not all*) 717 folks opt for SWA . Here's why.....if you are smart you would choose your company to work for like you would chose a stock you want to buy and hold (for a long time).

With that in mind, which company has been more profitable over the last 10 years? Which company has the best chance of growing over the next 10 years? Which company's management is held in higher esteem by their employees? Which company has never furloughed? Which company upgrades FO's to Capt faster? And, finally, which company has been more profitable over the last 10 years?
