Need to travel for work. I have status with American however, the flights are horrible and not direct. My other option is southwest but there’s only 1 direct flight on that day and that’s it. Should I just suffer with the multiple stops? Or take my chances with southwest?

It's one trip. You'll survive without status. Just take southwest.

My only hesitation here is where you’re flying and the time of day. I’d err on southwest but it being their only direct fly bothers me a bit…summer rain storms and all
