American has the best routes from Orlando (my home airport) westward (to most of my customers) of the 3 legacy airlines, so that’s my default

I’m not sure if I’d consider easily attainable status as a positive if I’m choosing airline loyalty

United! Platinum here, might have to change airlines though if we go back to pre-COVID status requirements 😐

International - it's gotta be Air New Zealand

Very nice business class; and the lounges are great.

For anything involving the west coast - Alaska Airlines

For anything else - Delta

Honorary mention to United - in my experience they always have the newest planes but that might be dumb luck on my part

Service: Delta
Point value especially for useful partners (for me): American, delta points are trash

Yeah but mere crumbs

Delta for domestic, Virgin Atlantic internationally. But I haven’t flown on SQ or any of the ME3.

I would love to try Singapore or Emirates business class 🤑

Domestic - Delta
Best Internatuonal - JAL
Everywhere else - Emirates

Thoughts on the proposed JetBlue -Spirit Merger?

I used to be a big fan of Jetblue(nyc based), but lately I feel like the airline is just as bad as the low cost ones. Old aircrafts, canceled and delayed flights. I can see why it’s important for JetBlue to have this merger for their relevance in this field.

Where are people traveling to these days?

I have 32k miles with THY that are about to expire. Normally I'd go ahead and book a flight, but I can't project which countries might be locked down again 5-6 months from now (haven't accrued enough PTO to travel in near future). The only other way to keep the miles is to pay $10 per 1000 miles, as far as I know. Are there other strategies?

Hi sales engineers, I’m currently a cloud security engineer with a cybersecurity background.

I feel like I was straight up lied to during the interview process. “lots of opportunities to hit quota”. I’m sitting here with only one demo two months after joining the company. it looks like our team has only two people doing demos, and demos are only happening once every two weeks. At this rate, I don’t think I’ll be even close to hitting OTE. Are there any other companies hiring right now? I’ll have a discussion about my concerns with my manager soon, but there’s too many red flags here.
