That commute is not just an hour. Its actually 1 hour and 30 mins with taxi time. That dosnt include the drive to the airport, and the time to get ready to get dressed and etc. Commuting is highly not preferable ESPECIALLY on reserve. If you hold a line, sure. But you will be on reserve for a very long time, and is not recommended at all.

Also, god forbid you get morning reserve with a super early show time. You wont find flights. You'd have to commute on your day off, on the day prior. And pay for a hotel out of your own pocket everyday.

Heck, even if you get noon reserve, you may not go back home at night since there may not be any flights.

In conclusion, put the shiny jet syndrome on the side, switch to he CRJ, have way less stress on your mind, and be based in DFW.
