Take it and stay if that's the case. That coming from a very happy guy who bailed at 14 years.
Don't spend it. Invest it and you won't really sweat that airline transition very much when it is time to retire...
I'm surprised the bonus is still kicking. Guess retention is still an issue...

They are paying young guys to get out, paying old guys to stay in...I don't think they really know what they are doing. As for staying in or getting out, I am very happy to have left after 9.5 yrs, but still do the reserves (non flying).

The Bonus is currently $25K/year (pre-tax) for 5 years for pilots. In previous years you could take it in lump sum all up front, but not this year.
I'm eligible for the FY08 bonus--details on that won't be announced until ~December which happens to be the end of my commitment. Decisions, decisions.....
