I started in executive an went to the airlines ( no lo-co). Although I never regreted the change, I never gave up on executive for a simple reason: I love executive flying! I will not claim one is better than the other, both have their advantages and disadvantages. The most important thing to remember is that they are very different. I cannot wear my airline hat when I am flying exec and vice versa.
If you don't stick to the procedures in the airlines, somebody will have your balls for breakfast, nobody wants your creativity! If you are not creative and flexible in executive then a: you are going nowhere and b: somebody will have your balls for breakfast.
The bottom line is I love to go to work, get in and go, and be done when I land (airline). BUT I also love being the "CHIEFCOOKBOTTLEWASHER" in executive flying!
