That being said we’ve got guys that commute to LGA and DTW and seem to not have as many problems.
It’s worth noting that you WILL be forced displaced to LGA 145 when you upgrade at Envoy anyways... you’re going to be a commuter either way.
Yeah I figure a move to Envoy will mean an initial base in Chicago, having to bid DFW, then upgrading and being displaced elsewhere. I do however know of a captain upgrade that got to stay in DFW. That's why I figure if much of the time I'll be commuting, why not got for a better airline.
