A Skywest buddie in DEN that will have to go to ORD for his upgrade. The list goes on! You can commute yes, but I live 15 minutes from my airport, like where I live and believe it or not I am happy. Im almost done with my 1st year and am got a coverage line with 17/35 days off. Just had a Northwest capt come back from his 9 day trip for 4 days off. That sounds great?
When you are young and new the perfect airline is the one that affords an early upgrade in preferably an RJ. Anything less is handing over the advantage to the other guy.
