The 900 has more variety but honestly where you overnight isn't a big deal and shouldn't be a factor on where you go.
I am getting about 17 days off a month right now before I pick up, after I pick up I average around 10 but I live in base so I don't mind.
We have auto throttles though. And think of any city that has air service in the islands. We fly there.
You're first two paragraphs are contradicting....
Republic and endeavor are both REGIONALS. They both pay about the same after its all said and done. They both have the about the same upgrade and reserve time (don't be fooled by the wholly owned people who think they are delta mainline employees). Republic and Endeavor should be at the top of your list as far as regionals go.(based on your concerns for domiciles and pay)
Pick which one suits you. Both are not going anywhere soon. Yes things change quickly in the regionals. To be honest it's about luck and timing which plays a huge part in upgrade time, where you'll end up, reserve time, etc.
And for those negative comments on the Republic BK topic. Republic is the third largest regional behind skywest and expressjet/asa. If you think any of the mainline carriers can afford RPA to fold, you're bat **** crazy. Ain't nobody got time or staffing fo dat Felicia! (Snaps fingers)
