I’m thinking the OP already made their decision by now, but in light of UAL getting an AIP and AA offering a 4% pay raise 3 year into negotiations, is there even a question? Why join a place where your work life will be immersed in a toxic contract negotiations instead of going to UAL with a brand new industry leading contract and a happy cockpit culture? Seems like a no brainer to me.

Not to poo poo your sentiment too hard, but if the leaked info is accurate, it isn’t even close to what we need . Barely keeps up with inflation and doesn’t address reserve, training pay, vaca pay, and a host of other issues. Don’t be blinded by “20%”. As for our culture, the Pilot culture is, for the most part, pretty good. We have a few with their heads in the sand and don’t understand that being in ALPA is a participation sport, but most get it. As far as corporate culture, most pilots don’t give 2 ****es about all the drivel coming out of Willis tower. We’ve seen the same repackaged branding stuff a dozen times through the years.

One airline ordered Boom jets the other airline is starting a greyhound bus service and bribing wholly owned pilots with 170k to come work for AA.
The trajectories of the two airlines couldn’t be more different. Doug Parker’s biggest mistake was letting go of Kirby and keeping Isom.
