You can't disregard city or how you value perks. Delta could be the best in the world, but if I lived somewhere with one flight a day, it's shit.

I'm in LA, but still fly United. I fly to United hubs a lot and the Star Alliance has been great for redemption. I'm also bumped to business a considerable amount.

What’s the point? They all suck. Experience depends more on airport than airline

They’re both terrible. But if I had to choose, United. In my experience, American had so many delays that they could have prevented. The level of negligence from their staff is alarming

United for me. Then Southwest.
But it’s not the airlines that suck. It’s the passengers who put their bare feet up or change diapers in the cabin or don’t tell their awful kids to stop kicking your seat.

If you hold a gun to my head and make me choose? United. At least they communicate and care about a few more metrics than just whether or not they closed the door on time.

Sometimes I'd rather connect than give money to either.

Delta

location and connectivity is everything. they are all shit. so at least choose one you can ride regularly and build the status

I would agree with Delta.. but given the choices.. American

If you care about points redemption for international travel then United

Starting a new job in September. If the new company matches 100% of 401k up to 5%, does that mean a max of 5% of the salary I’ll make between September and December, or would it be 5% of my full salary, so that if i contribute at 20% or so, I can get 5% of the full, yearly salary in just those 4 months? Thank you!
