Opportunity Cost - AA vs UAL?
#171
Maybe it's is a toss up on the cabin crews. Our product doesn't have to be inferior.

The 1st/Business class product offered by all 3 legacies is relatively comparable. They’re all pretty good.

Yeah I think you are spot on. That being said VERY few corporations are any different. SWA is to an extent. But labor is no different, always needy and whining about something. Even those who are paid well.

Actually I've almost always had a good flight experience on AA (not counting delays/canx flts), what I've had issues with is any interaction with the gate staff. For some reason I always seem to catch them at their crabbiest moment.

Mostly just crabby?? Since I’ve been here for 6ish months, I’ve been overall disappointed with gate agents. Happy ones are few and far between. Just reporting my experience.
It seems if ur mad at work all day cuz u don’t like people(people are arse holes), then get a different job.

PS at Delta for gate agents has seemed to make a big difference in attitudes over the last decade.
May just be a coincidence but correlation seems strong. That and the fact that firing a bad gate agent (or reassigning then) is probably easier at DAL.

Do AA gate agents get profit sharing?

It’s more than the blue wave, even my liberal friends and family want to move. It’s just changing rapidly. You can have great life in CLT, and will probably hold it before you could Interview, get a CJO, get a class date, then hold DEN at UAL. I have the opposite problem of you, we thought about moving to CLT when I got hired, and moved home to Colorado instead. Now the kids are well established and we are tied in. I regret it every day.
You won’t commute from CLT for 20 years...that’s not mathematically possible, unless they close the base or shrink it rapidly. The problem is, it’s still being affected by the integration. LAA guys want it and new hires that were on the LAA side senior to you want it, and they seem to have shrunk the flying a bit. It won’t be forever though.
