A common theme here.

I know this is a sweeping generalization and all… But I’ve been a commuter my whole airline career. I regularly Jumpseat on AA flights and have only run into 2 odd balls out of hundreds if not thousands of flights. I’ve jumped on Delta a couple dozen times and I’ve had either odd or downright awful experiences 5 or 6 of those. Most seem to be centered around the 75/76 fleet. All the times I’ve been on the jump of the 717, 73, or old Mad dogs it was a good experience. So I dunno, Delta sure seems to have some odd balls in proportion to other carriers.

Holy cow. I’ve been at D for 6 years and nearly everything you wrote is wrong. I bolded the only accurate stuff. D ain’t perfect but you’re doling out a lot of misinformation.

If the travel market stays strong and AA gets its debt controlled in the good times I think it will be fine and a great place to work. It could certainly happen, I just think people should consider the the possibility. Of the 3 choices for regionals I considered, 2 no longer exist. I got very lucky. The airline industry seems to favor a conservative growth strategy at every level. The best job security is of course to just fly boxes.
Too big to fail, implies leverage in DC and massive influence over the economy mostly only banks have. If only one airline actually needs to declare bankruptcy it will be allowed to happen. It will miss growth opportunities and the contracts will certainly not be industry leading afterwards. |
I only had a short stay AAL, but I thoroughly enjoyed my time there. I've now have been at DAL now for 7 years and I'm extremely happy here. I haven't seen all that many of the stereotypes I had always heard about DAL..then again, I'm not based in ATL lol. If I had lived close to any one of the AAL bases, I'd have happily stayed there. Either one would be a great option, so pick whichever one allows you to sit short call from home, or has the easiest commute.
