GM Autists,
I need to fly over the holidays, there are multiple carriers (United, Spirit, Delta, American Airlines, Alaska Airlines).
Since pricing is similar, choice is really down to safety, which airline in your opinion has the least vaxxed pilots? I know nationally its SouthWest but they don't have flights to where I'm going.
I think all of them pushed the vaxx fairly hard, unfortunately. I don't remember seeing how many of the unvaxxed pilots came back after the smoke cleared, if any.
My personal experience with them all is Southwest is the best for domestic, but as you already said they don't fly where you're going. For international flights,
I use United as they and their partners (specifically ANA airlines) haven't let me down before. I've never had a flight with American where my luggage didn't get lost, so if you're checking anything you may want to steer clear of them.
I haven't used Delta since the 90s so can't speak to them recently. Spirt just filed for bankruptcy. Haven't used Alaskan ever.
Southwest is absolutely all-in on the DEI and LGBTQ+ garbage.
