I am a 2015 hire and currently living in the Panhandle of Florida (IAH based). The family and I enjoy living in Florida and I have the opportunity to move my USAFR job to SOCOM at MacDill AFB (Tampa).

I've looked up the number of daily flights to EWR, IAD, IAH and ORD and EWR looks the best. I've also looked at the daily flight loads to all and they are hit or miss on the number of empty seats, standby's and listed jumpseaters.

My question is for people who have or are doing it; if I were to move to Tampa, what is the commute like from MCO and/or TPA to any of the UAL bases?

Thanks...
Tank,

MCO commute is probably the most saturated with jumpseaters to all bases. Take a look at Tampa to Dulles. I have a friend that was living in base IAD and moved to TPA. I thought he was crazy but he says the commute has not been bad. He is a 2013 hire for comparisons sake. Send me a PM and maybe I can connect you with him if you want details.
