Endeavor has a base in Atlanta where I live so that would avoid commuting. I’ll most likely fly the CRJ900 and from reviewing the forums you get off reserve pretty fast and can get a base in Atlanta relatively quickly as well. I’ve put into several airlines, but in the meantime I am separating from the military relatively soon, and from running the numbers the pension will cover the bills, mortgage, food, etc…so without a job and income I’d basically be house poor. I applied to Endeavor, Republic, and Mesa as a result just to make sure I do have some income coming in. Also, for what it’s worth every experience so far I’ve had with Endeavor has been positive.

Given all of that, I could potentially go fly for Republic or Mesa airlines since both of them have contacted me. They have bases in Chicago and I have family there. It’d be commuting, but at least I could avoid paying for a crash pad.
