MEM is a peice of cake to commute in and out of but it all depends on where you're commuting from. I have almost 10 flights a day to get to or from memphis. Fedex is icing on the cake if you're in a pinch. The airbus was very commutable out of MEM when i was on it and i was junior (both temp block and reserve). Also When we go to only 6 short call days a month it will only get easier for reserves. The DC9 is a little less commuter friendly because there are more out and backs and pop up save the day trips. The good thing with the airbus was that there was only like 3 out and backs on the bus out of memphis each day, everything else was an overnight somewhere. That allows you to really forecast what you may get.
