Most of the schedules you get will at least be commutable on one end. Within a few months FOs will typically be able to hold lines that tend to be more commutable on both ends. When I was a junior line holder at one of our outstation bases, I was able to get through a month without paying for a hotel out of pocket. That being said, Dash schedules will probably start to get a little bit worse with more -145 flying coming online. Feel free to PM me if you have more questions.
