From my understanding PSA will allow you to upgrade but force you to another domicile?
Going out of MCO would be a one leg commute to every base except for Dayton, and I think the most recent class didn't even award Dayton to new hires.
I've been here for a couple of months now and still enjoy it. I live in base so that helps with reserve. All but 1-2 captains I have been with were great and I look forward to flying with them again. We have relatively young captains especially compared to Expressjet, but who knows if that'll continue.
I have friends at Endeavor who chased the pay and have been sitting in a crashpad in NY ever since. I end up taking home more than they do after all the crashpad and commuting expenses...plus I don't have to deal with LGA/JFK on a daily basis
You'll likely be happy wherever you end up. Especially on these forums, the grass is always greener somewhere else...
