BTW, you have been doing this long enough to know not to pick an airline or job because they have a base where you want to live. Bases open and close all the time. Not as much at the majors but its still a bad reason to pick one over another.
I see your point, but it is a very big deal for most people. If I were to go to Delta, which is arguably the best airline to work for at this point, commuting from DFW would be a nightmare. See my point?

But you are right, bases close. The only one I see as permanently rooted in DFW is AA. Unless they close the doors, DFW will always be their stronghold.
