I am thinking the drive would be much less stressful than trying to make he commute via jumpseat+car ride. Just wondering what you guys have done, or if this is crazy of me to even consider. Thanks.
That drive may not sound that bad right now, but after 6 months of reserve or a crap schedule, it's going to suck. Don't be a sucker for the quick upgrade, go to an airline that has a commute you can live with if you get stuck there.
