I feel that this should be priority number 2 right behind pay in contract negotiations. Times have changed and more and more of the general public are traveling and getting a seat can be an act of god at times. Then, you always can't rely on the jumpseat due to weight and balance or ego trips. Commuting sucks no matter how you look at it, but if I had a guaranteed seat to and from work, that would definetely ease the sting. I would even agree to living within an hours drive of an airport that my airline or their affiliates serve if I knew I was always going to get on. That would most certainly be worth a move.
