Commuting is a form of punishment. I hate it and you will too.

I never used UAL's when it was Skynet since everything is always a cluster with them.DAL's is really nice, you can see where you are on the list in priority at the gate and the website.There is no feeling that you are getting screwed over.

I didn't realize how hard commuting is. Even holding a line now it sucks up five-six extra nights per month and god knows how many hours you could have spend at home being productive or spending time with friends and family. If I had it to do again I'd seriously consider waiting, even at considerable loss of seniority, to get hired at a carrier with a base in my hometown. I even know that's no guarantee, but wow would my QOL be better. Other than a tripling of pay or my girlfriend growing beer-dispensing boobs, it would be the single best thing to improve quality of life. |

If non sense on an online forum gets to you then you might really have to toughen up before dealing with rude gate agents, low pay, and a horrible qol. Welcome back!

True. However, UAL's "flying together" employee site (formerly Skynet) can be so horribly inaccurate of what's really going on. I can be at the gate, looking at the site, while the departure monitor is COMPLETELY different as far as seats available, seats yet to be assigned, whatever.
Meanwhile, I can to the UAL app on my phone and look at the sub menu/seat map and it jives with the departure screen/real time info. To include the non-revs listed. But that's just United, other companies may be different. I heard that DAL's is pretty accurate, no personal experience though. For UAL, you don't need to actually access info online, just copy this down and keep it handy for future reference, it is valid for pretty much any UA flight: Avail 0/0/-68 |
