I split my time 50/50 based on flight schedules. United you will grind for status and when you get status occasionally you will be treated like royalty. With southwest you will quickly get status and regularly be treated like a human.

Depends on location. I know people who live by southwest

United is only worth it if you can get status, that said southwest companion ticket deal is amazing. So depends on your airports.

1K here and recommend Southwest.

1k as well and you’ll never get me to fly southwest. However, the companion pass is a great perk. I chose UA for the upgrades, lounges, and international flights.

None lol

Southwest!
Or: anything but United

🚨 Arriving home to Ohare and was approached by a guy offering taxi rides and handing out business cards in terminal 3 baggage claim. DO NOT ACCEPT RIDES FROM PEOPLE OFFERING THEM!!! Whether they ‘can do cash or card,’ don’t buy it - they’ve got you once you’re in the car. Told airport emergency hotline and they are investigating.

Stay safe and don’t get got!!

It’s in the middle of the night so the perfect opportunity to share my story. I was diagnosed with MSH6 Lynch Syndrome in 2017. In order to be proactive I decided to get a full hysterectomy 3 years ago. Because of this I was forced into surgical menopause. I started on Estradiol patches for awhile then moved to a topical cream now am on the pills. Initially Premarin but due to increasing prices I’m back on Estradiol. I don’t sleep very well, still get hot flashes, and experience highs & lows.
