If you want a line and to live in base. Start in DTW the movement is still the fastest. DTW has 200 and 700/900 which helps with variety . I am Atlanta based and live in Florida. The Atlanta flying is ok be it does get a little old. I try and pick up trips out of IAH, DFW and DTW to mix things up a little since I can commute easy to any of those bases out of Orlando but not worth it for me to based any where ele except Atlanta because I would have to pick up a hotel on one of the other sides. Also Detroit cost of living is the lowest for apartments or a crash pad. Best of luck Skywest is a great place to be.
