IAH/DFW/ATL/DEN/ORD/SLC/PHX/CLT/DCA/IAD come to mind, which is where a lot of guys I've flown with commute from. BOS is fine. MCO would be fine if it wasn't so senior. LA, NY, south Florida? meh. So yeah, I'll stick to my argument that the other 3/4 airlines have better base options unless you live near BOS.
