Funny. I asked my colleague who has an extensive airline background a similar question the other day: Which does he prefer, airline or corporate?
His answer? Corporate has better equipment, better pay, better schedule, better diversity of destinations, better crew hotels and ground transportation, more time to visit cities during layovers, better passengers,...did I say better pay? Downside? Airline guys don't have to "do anything" to prepare for a flight but show up on time.
Now, which sounds better to you?
