Do it, you've got nothing to lose.

Do it. Nothing to loose and everything to gain by being closer to home or even better, home based

Things are starting to move for people thats good. I never thought I would see the day when I would have to turn down a united interview because I already had a job. Only thing left is if delta decided to call.

As for myself. At 5+ years I think anywhere but a lateral move would be a mistake not to take. I think I would likely upgrade at most LLC's before I'll have the chance at ASA/ExpressJet.

If all goes as scheduled I should upgrade to CA at Spirit quicker than It would have taken me at XJT. This is by far the greatest job I ever had, getting out of the slavery & constant barrage of bull**** of everyday XJT life has made me a much more happy individual

I've been hearing that upgrade time at UAL is around 5 years with retirements (I realize all that could change in a heart beat..but still). Thats years quicker than at XJT i've been there over 7 with still no ability to upgrade.
