Most will tell you to not come here if you plan to commute. Not saying it’s impossible, just can make the schedules tough to deal with. Many people still do it.

FDX/UPS have the best commuter setups, lots of long trips with the first or last (or both) flight a deadhead. You also get a commuter bank to switch your deadhead to start out of your hometown with positive space and so you get paid for the trip to work. NK would be the best commuter option out of the LCC's since they have multi-day trips and min 4 days off blocks.

Yes you'll be required to fly out of one of the bases and probably need to live there. Do you need a list of the bases?
