I think this is important to mention: I would highly advise to live in base or close to base (reachable by car) if you’re going to work at JSX. I know some do commute but it’s because they have been here for a while and have always been able to hold a 8/6 or 7/7 schedule. You’re gonna find it very difficult to commute when your line is most likely going to be 2 on 2 off 1 on 1 off 3 on 4 off etc...the first couple of 56 day bid periods (since you’ll be junior and will only be able to hold the left over schedules) + the fact that you won’t know until 3-4 days before at any given time where your overnights will be. We also don’t have jumpseat privileges with a major yet if you’re planning on commuting from far away. This may all change next year but just wanted to give those that are considering commuting a heads up.
