Sounds like we need a new thread…best airlines to work for as a pilot. With a poll too.

Best airline to work for is the major that operates out of your home town. Absent that, Cargo. Absent that, one that you can short/frequent commute to (but drive in a pinch), absent that it's all a crap shoot.

At AA they have you wait in line to get in the club they are so full at some hubs

What's this dropping a trip you speak of? You must be in one of the blessed categories
(not a dig at you, just being very sarcastic at the fact many of us can't due to our understaffing in BES)

haven't been able to do that in about, oh well. Its been a long time. our staffing blows

you are assuming people are telling the truth. I am willing to bet there is plenty of exaggeration.

If I was a 20 something regional airline guy looking at the big 3, Delta would be #3. UA and AA first. Delta has the least widebodies and half the entire list was hired since Jan 2014 - with an average newhire age of 37. You're gonna be stuck behind some young people for a long time for the smallest amount of widebodies compared to AA or UA.

I've got a United club membership. The food's not that good but at least the well drinks are free.

Same with United at DEN. But they've got one of their clubs closed for renovations.
At EWR, only one club's open. While there's no line, they sometimes deny one time passes (same with DEN).
The other clubs don't seem to be a problem to get access.
