United is the better company, no discussion. But NK was a great company for the pilots with seniority (last contract wiped out QOL for reserve pilots). Trading single digit captain in base for triple digit bottom FO is a big step, especially at my age. What hurts: the pay cut, but mostly the fact that I know I should have tried to get out as soon as the merger talks started. Told everyone to leave, and everyone listened except me.
January line was 21 legs, 18 crew meals, #jeffreydahmer. And starting February, I wont have to commute for the first time in over 2 decades.

You literally took the words, and regret, right out of my mouth. It's hard to make peace with the last three years of complacency but it has to be done. Hopefully every NK guy and gal finds a seat soon. I can't see this ending well.

You had to wait and see what would happen with b6/nk. You guys did good with what you had in front of you.

You haven’t been here long enough to appreciate the fact that many have made the tough decision to leave after 10-12 years and many are still struggling with that decision.

Denial is the first stage of grief. You’re still living in denial. Don’t crap on others sharing their experience after leaving, it’s good info for those deciding themselves with impending class dates approaching.
