Personally, I’d prefer an RSW base.
But if we were to open an actual pilot base in FL, MCO would make the most sense. It’s the least affected by snow birds. During the good times (PC), the time of year didn’t matter. Everything was full, every flight, to and from MCO. Now, if LATAM survives, and our codeshare survives their BK, then a MIA base might make more sense, if we get some of the AA/LATAM flights that had been operated by AA. But if their Codeshare police were anything like our codeshare police, all the flights were operated by LATAM, and unlikely to change hands anytime soon.
