For whatever it’s worth, the happiness index seems to be higher at delta. Every airline pilot engages in sport b*tching, but it seems to be more prevalent at American and more of an ingrained cultural thing.

*source = I work at one of them and commute on both of them.

What if you are a commuter? Inputs on DAL vs AA? Not concerned with WB or maxing out pay as much as possible. More going for the QOL and family time. Midwest living and near similar commutes to muiltiple AA & DAL domiciles. Thanks in advance.

I’d always heard Delta has the worst commuting rules. 2 flights with the back up being Delta or Delta connection.

there’s two sets, 2 flights of any kind with two hours between, or 2 flights with the second being on DL or Delta Connection. They may positive space you on the second flight if you go with the latter policy.

what are UAL and AA’s policies? My point was I had always heard Delta’s lagged the industry.

My bad. Not sure on UA but I believe AA is just one flight.
Plus neither have the language about reliability and commuting strategy counseling if use is excessive. Or whatever weasel language we have.
