Southbest. Get a credit card and you can hit companion pass right away which I consider the best domestic airline perk.

Which SW credit card would you recommend?

United flights to this location are regional jets or Embraer 175 making the travel not so comfortable if I don’t get premium economy. Also, Thursday travel is terrible with Atleast 10-12 people who are global and 1k. I’d have to start from scratch for southwest tho

There isn't much of a benefit for status on southwest besides A-list (or whatever priority boarding is called). Companion pass is great but since you didn't make gold on united, I'd doubt you'll hit 100k points.

That said, if you travel on Southwest for personal trips or southwest is just more convenient then I'd go for it (since your status seems to be getting you nothing on United)
