I am lucky enough to have a CJO looking at an August class date. I will be commuting from IAD for at least the first few months. I am thinking 320 or 73 would best suit me to start. DTW, NYC, and ATL are all about equidistant from me, and I am wondering which I would be likely to hold a line the quickest. Any big pros or cons with the routes from any of these bases? ATL seems to have the most commute options per day.
I am also open to the idea of the 220, but am a little hesitant as I don’t want it to be too similar to the regional flying I already do. But it seems like such a neat airplane.
Many thanks in advance for any advice! And I am beyond thrilled to start
I can't speak to the commute stuff very much, but I wouldn't avoid the 220. It does a lot of long and thin routes, not very much regional style flying at all. You're more likely to do much more of that on the 737 honestly (though the 737 flying is diverse and it does all kinds of other stuff too).
