As for bases, I assume you just take the one that provides the shortest commute, assuming you have a choice? Any guess how long it takes to get transferred to a different base? IAH would be ideal for me, as it's by far the closest. EWR, SFO, and LAX are going to be an all day commute, I assume most people get out of that ASAP.
Shortest commute, time to hold a line, etc.
SFO is junior because it has a lot of red eyes.
As far as the 737 vs Bus. I’ve been told the 737 has better overnights, but you pay for that privilege by having to fly it.
The Bus is a nice ride, but if you’re coming from a regional the job my not look much different except for the paycheck you’ll be getting.
