I work for AA and we can reserve the JS on our metal so that takes almost all of the stress out of commuting. Having said that, commuting still sucks. Hard. I couldn't imagine doing it my whole career. I'll only have to do it a few more months then I'll be in base. But it's nice to have the option if needed. There's no such thing as a "good" commute. Even if it's a quick one hour flight, it's still a whole extra level of logistics you have to figure out to just get back and forth between home and work. Not to mention all of the extra time you **** away not being home when you're off. And don't even get me started on crashpads.
