Has anyone experienced that the commute out of RSW or TPA been any easier to NYC/MSP/DTW than from South FL?
I found tpa to be a good backup for me. Bigger airport more options but remember with more options comes more nonrevs and jumpseaters. Most of my time in the jumpseat came from riding in and out of tpa. I did the commute to Boston on reserve all last year. if you leave real early and give yourself plenty of options then you'll eventually get there. Also picking off peak flight times is crucial to easing the stress when you show up at the podium. Good luck.
