Lots to think about. For example, trips at SWA are generally not commutable on both ends, but I personally know two guys here that commute to DAL from OKC and TUL. Also, Uber from DFW to DAL runs about $25 on average as a backup. If you have an AM trip, it's likely you would commute in the day before. A PM trip often has commuters going home the day after their trip ends.

A 1-leg commute is already hard--a two leg commute can really suck. Most newhires at SWA (historically) do time in BWI or OAK for a bit.

If you can handle a commute to a junior base, it's doable.
