I was hired at Jet Blue just over 5 years ago. Then, a year later I went to Delta. It wasn't that I didn't like JetBlue, I did and usually had more fun at work, once I got there. But I found the commute from Atlanta tiring, and had gone through a divorce where I would get my kids 50% of the time. So I could rarely enjoy premium pay at JetBlue.
Now after 4 years at Delta, I'm a junior Md88 copilot and can enjoy a great schedule with weekends off on reserve, living in base. Or, I could probably fly an 80 hour line over weekends.
I'm just curious if by now I would have made captain on the 190 if I had stayed. I'm sure I would be holding a much better schedule as a 320 copilot at JetBlue than I can at Delta on the maddog.
