Still CJO at the end of the interview if successful?
- I have CJOs with Delta and FedEx, and currently FedEx is my #1. However, there are definitely some advantages to UPS based on my personal circumstances. I know this question has been asked in the past, but as of mid-2022, is there any reason to consider UPS over FedEx? (I still don't have a class date for either carrier).
Thank you.

Appealing points for UPS are: Louisville drive would be easy and I don’t need to stress about what aircraft based on single pay scale. Medical seems outstanding at UPS too.
Is the culture really that different? Is IPS that much better than ALPA (seems like it may actually be). I appreciate all the insight I can get!

. The flat payscale is nice, but it means that no fleet is exceptionally junior (no one year upgrades). You can bid fleet for QOL not money. All that said, the FedEx guys I know in Indy are happy and it’s not exceptionally senior. A short drive to work beats a 1.5-2 hour drive. Assuming you have the choice, go with the first class date but jump to FedEx.

I think you already know the answer.
You’ve wanted to work at FedEx a long time. Moving to Indy, you will eventually be able to have a short drive to work. While the drive down 65 is fairly easy, you may grow weary of it after years instead of the 30ish minute drive to Indy.
i agree with Tnkr. Take the first class, see what you think and then decide when faced with a choice. You may get somewhere and totally change your mind.

Good luck with the offers and decisions!
