Not sure about others but I commuted from DFW to MIA. Much easier than to DCA. A lot of jumpseats. Long call reserve ain't bad. Depends on your seniority a hard line may be good may be bad. Some of this stuff is complicated it really depends on your exact spot on the list and what type of trips you can hold(or willing to do) in a particular base.
Also the train goes to FLL and PBI. Rare to get a non MIA trip on reserve but I did get some. And then there is hangin out at the beach.
