And you felt the need to start a thread for it? Interesting.

May I also add that Atlas is bad for someone wanting to make 500k and flying 10 hours a month?

Ask me in two hours how the UA jumpseat heading to work panned out, but so far so good.

Seattle is a gateway city, I don't see the problem.

I only commuted 10 round trips last year. Paid for zero hotels, stayed in zero crashpads, and rode on zero jumpseats. I live in USA but I would say pretty good for a commuter.

Service on the company deadheads stink. Didn't get a single cocktail on a 12 hr flight. Lots of sass from the flight attendant on that freighter too.
