I totally get the added stress of commuting and all that but commuter clauses at all the airlines it’s really not that big of a deal unless you gotta do a 2-3 leg because you live in nowheresville. To each their own, that’s for sure.
I live in a place where you show up at the gate and commute air's flight is suppose to be at 4PM and its delayed till 8 or 9 at Dulles. I drove the 120 miles for years but the I-95 traffic finally broke me, 5 hours to go 100 miles both ways was the end for me, loving the paid airline ticket to get to/from work, and sadly with three kids we could never non-rev except to Europe on Tuesday's! The Dummy ticket at NJA is a pretty nice benefit to get to my place in Key West during the winter!
