My first question for the current Alaska Pilots is whats it like to commute for Alaska for the long term? Do most people stick with Alaska because they live in the PNW? If I need to commute to Seattle for the rest of my career would you recommend Alaska or Delta? Second question: is there anything preventing me from commuting from Canada itself? Do I need to be a US resident according to the contract or anything like that?

Thanks
