I’m UA. 3 yrs on property and have a 777 bid. Maybe could hold NB capt next bid if it goes as junior and accounting for retirement advancement between now and then. I say go to the legacy as it gives you more options than anyone else. You can only make so much lemonade from these part 121 lemons, but at least UA has so many different flavors offered you can definitely find one that pleases your pallete for sure.
on the 777 or NB captain. Hope either way you have a great time and I’ll look forward to joining you when I’m above that G line!

Well spirit third year captain makes about three times a skywest captain. 208 plus 401k and 8% international override. You won’t make 200 plus no where third year .not at a legacy for sure maybe fedex or ups. if you were in the 30s then a legacy would offer more in the long run but given you have 8 years Spirit is one hell of a deal if they take you. Regarding training AQP in the spring so it’s not that bad. But hey whatever floats your boat sir and makes you happy. Whatever you do work on your apps as soon as you’re off training. You never know Military guys make 50% of all legacy hiring. Best wishes! Happy Holidays

Also consider you could hold Widebody F/O here at UAL pretty quick and its a pretty nice lifestyle....and you can make as much or more than a junior narrow body Capt'n. 220K and 16 days off with great layovers is nothing to sneeze at. Just my .02!
