Do the Ejet out of IAH. They still have 4 more Ejets to add to the line. You won’t need to drive unless you want to - you will be able to commute within a few months of getting to the line. We currently have overnights in CRP all the time - so you can give up your hotel room and sleep at home when you have those trips.
The only sucky thing about the Ejet is the time to upgrade is currently 22 months from date of hire.
If you take the CRJ, you will probably have to commute to SDF for a few months until you can get back to DFW. (They just added a base in SDF which appears it will be the junior base).
Won’t you get to count 500 hours of your military time toward upgrading?
