Living in base is a high priority for a huge number of pilots. Not sure why you are pretending its not or shouldn't be.
Christ, nobody said it shouldn’t be a priority. I live in base, of course it’s better than commuting. But I’m also aware we are all one closure away from being commuters. That’s the job, doesn’t matter if it’s Spirit or another airline, bases close.
Lots of guys leaving Spirit for AA/UAL to keep their Dallas or Chicago home based a strong career long reality. You want that, apply. It’s that simple because bases isn’t something you can negotiate for in a contract. They will come and go.
