Columbus based pilot
 
Hello everyone. Just received the interview invite today. Is there anyone on here would be willing to answer some questions offline via PM or phone call about commuting from Ohio?

Currently in the pool at ual. I like both companies. I'm older so I'll never be moving to base. The commute on SWA looks easier (never commuted so what do I know?). 15 days on reserve looks better than the 18 days at UAL. Lots of benefits to UAL but everyone loves flying on SWA so..plus, I saw on here that swa guys all wear ANR headsets which is just icing on the cake. Recently retired army guy flying a very loud cargo 767 and shouting out call outs.

Thanks

No decisions to make until somebody offers you a job! Good luck!

If taller than 6'3", go to UAL and never bid the guppy, otherwise good luck.

I'd give you the same exact advise minus the height criteria.
