PwC India Hi Folks, I left my stable job at Deloitte USI and moved to Germany for a better job. But my mom had a major health issue and I'm planning to travel back to India to support her as I'm a single child. I'm working in one of the top organisation in Germany with a base of 90k euro and looking for good opportunities in India.

United always. American can get f*cked. I have never experienced such terrible policies, customer service, and issues with flying than I have with American
Southwest
Rising Star
United because it is better for my destinations when traveling out of ORD. If you have no status and are deciding for a one-off flight, AA vs UA doesn't matter, so pick the cheapest or most convenient.
Delta 😂
United for ORD. I also prefer star alliance over one world.
I’m an ORD frequent flyer and I prefer AA for two simple reasons..
1. Free liquor in Econ+ (at least pre COVID)
2. Live TV streaming from personal entertainment device (great great great for sports)
United is the best in Chicago hands down.
AA - much better miles especially after United gutted MileagePlus. In terms of actual services / capabilities they’re both the same in actual statistics in cancellations and delays and neither has a premium product so there’s a marginal difference if anything between the 2.

United. Easier to earn status, making it easier to earn miles and travel for free faster. Also when you have status there are some great miles redemptions
Lots of domestic flights I get for myself or friends/family like 10-15k miles round trip on “super saver” redemptions. I have heard American has some very good international redemptions, just not quite as useful for me
I’m an American fan here. I haven’t had any significant problems with them and their airplanes have usb charges which is dope
American cuz I have a credit card that gets me mad miles.
Spirit airlines
Thank you all for your comments, curious more because I’m going to be travelling more
Tbh I’ve had status on both UA and AA. They’re very comparable. I’d just be realistic about where you’ll be flying to the most and see how many and how frequent are flights to and from your destination. For example if you want to go to DCA, AA is a no brainer. Going to Houston? UA. Look at the flight route frequency per airport.
United bc idk I’m a sheep who is in quite deep
United as I think the flight schedules are better.
I have been 1K on United for many years as well as Exec Platinum on AA. So with all that experience flying both out of ORD I don’t find one better than the other - both offer indifferent, inconsistent service striving for the lowest level of mediocrity that they can find. That said UA has the slight advantage for me because they have quite a few more international destinations from ORD than AA.
