The money is definitely better but I haven't seen how much it increases every year for inflation, that could be good or bad.

I'm right there with you and there's lots of pros and cons but the hardest part is our management lying and hiding facts so who knows how long upgrade will take. Good luck in your decision.
I recently flew with someone that's been here for a few months, who spent a little over a year at Compass (living in base) and now commuting to Vegas. He didn't seem to regret his decision.

We've always had inefficient trips, however that still didn't stop me from blocking 500 hrs last year and credit 1000+ We still have the min of 4 days off between trips with the new contract, and QOL is still good. I spent 8 years at a regional, IMO I feel safer knowing my future is not decided by Delta, American and United.
