I'm stuck in my area for at least a couple years (the better half has a real job) so I'll be commuting from CMH for a couple years before ultimately moving to base. Was planning on bidding the 320 in class, but I've been thinking more about bidding the 190 and hanging out on that for the first few years while I'm commuting. We've got 20-24 daily flights to NYC (12-14 to JFK/LGA, thanks RPA) out of CMH, so in theory the commute shouldn't be totally miserable. Is there still a good amount of movement on the 190 with the reduced flying? Ideally I'd like to sit reserve as short as possible and my priority is holding commutable lines, regardless of fleet. Is the 190 a good choice, or should I just try and bid the 320? JFK is the priority for me, regardless of fleet.
320 will have better commutability. I’d stay away from the 190 unless you were a local in JFK. .
