You will have to work harder marketing yourself to get to a big 3 from YX, but it's not impossible in under 6 years. You'll enjoy a significantly better QOL at YX than almost any other regional. That's the short term advantage of Republic. For me, I didn't want to suffer for those years of my life in a meat grinder regional, so I came here and mostly enjoy it.
