Not saying anything bad about your recommendation, but just realize that not everybody aspires to live on the backside of the clock and manage naps for a living.

That being said, a lot of pilots use JetBlue to commute to NY from Florida and love it. NY is much much easier from FL than ATL unless you are senior and can get the JS at .00000000001second past noon.

The OP actually sounds like he is thinking this thru.
