My approach to picking a regional is long term. I could go somewhere with the better contract but as well all know this industry changes very rapidly. I think the AA wholly-owned’s are attracting the long term type thinkers. But that could change as well.
So out of curiosity, why is my reason not a good one?

Best advice I can and have given anyone who wants to fly for a career is get an education (bachelors degree) in something else that you could do if you can’t fly. The day may come when the big five or six hire without it, but it’s a back up plan as well.

You are not wrong. That is exactly why I’m not switching at this point is cause the grass isn’t always greener.
I got the 4 yeah degree in comm avit and UAS (Completely useless for manned flying I know but it was an extra 6 classes so why not). I’m not dependent on the flow, but I think it offers quicker movement across the board compared to the other airlines. I think the company knows this too and that’s an incentive for them to hold off pay raises as well, but I could be wrong.
That is why I believe classes are still filling up, at least from a new/newish hire perspective...
