Well, there's a 76 base in TPA. Just picked it up, so I can't give you the lineholder skinny. It appears TPA based crews occasionally overnight there, at least based upon recent bidlines. So a 15-17 day line might turn into 10-15 days away, and *might* be broken up to look like a 4-5 day on regular pax-style airline trip pairing - but you'd have to get lucky to hold that or be very senior. There's a lot of reserve (might be great if you wanna stay home) and what are basically "build up lines", e.g., blank lines that they fill in with open flying - Atlas calls them "secondary lines".
Downside is it's still about two years to hold (although trending junior, presumably due to point 3 in this sentence), all domestic Amazon (or maybe that's a perk), and the lines seem to be built to
min guarantee outside of peak (roughly Aug or Sept to Dec or Jan).
Have you explored 777 MIA? There have recently been new hires that held it out of training. Not far from central Florida, and the lines are (generally) built to pay a little better.
