For me:
1. Front end DH’s came from a regional and commuted, it sucked. Now I either get a confirmed seat and am getting paid to go to work or I have a reserved jumpseat that with a few exception is as close to a guarantee as you can get. Commuting used to give me nightmares now I have to just remember to book the JS.
2. Vacation. With line bidding your vacation goes on top of your trips and kicks them off. No BD pbs that only gives you a certain amount of days off because you only had x amount of vacation. If you want to not use all of your vacation hours that’s an option too. I happen to like my time off.
3. The people. Truely is a pretty easy group to get along with.
