It's a pretty easy choice for me; I want HOU and won't get jabbed. It is either SWA or Spirit.

Midwest would-be commuter. Has the most bases I could see moving the family to eventually (not much of a coastal boy), and probably the best odds of ever opening a new pilot base that isn't in NY, CA, or FL.

Lol. Ya. That's funny. Considering United fired people for the jab. But you likely didn't know that as a devout CNNer. 👍 Hope you're enjoying your commute. And your extra covids.

You were already here. You didn't have a decision to make. A regional guy likely has different arithmetic. Whatever. We all have our opinions on that topic. No point in beating dead horses.
