Its about a 20 to 30 minute drive to the airport for me. But like was stated above, the flights are being reduced. I had to be in CLT at 9AM... The 7AM to CLT was completely full (when there used to always be a few seats open) and I almost didn't get on. They reduced the daily flights and did away with a morning flight and a late afternoon flight. My day ended at 4PM yesterday and the last afternoon flight back to JAX was at 4PM. The next one was at 8PM but was oversold by about 10 seats and 4 mainline employees had priority over me for the jumpseats. So no go. There used to be a 6:00PM flight but that one is gone now as well. I have to wait for the 10:30PM and that flight was full. I made it on at the last second by the skin of my teeth but my luck could just as easily not been so good and I would of been spending the night in CLT on my own dime. Finally get back to my house around 12:30AM the next day. So I was up from 4:30AM to about 1:00AM the next day. 21 hours. I know this isn't unusual for many of us, but for anyone reading this and thinking of commuting, all I will say is consider your options carefully. Because it sucks and it can suck the soul out of you if you do it long enough. Chronic fatigue is the name of the game.
