To put those numbers in perspective system wide we lose 2200 pilots between now and 31 Dec 2021. I don't know the total number of pilots in those bases but at a glance it looks like they have fewer retirements than the system wide average.

So, after 2 years up there, we moved to ATL. Lower cost of living, much better seniority, excellent no-revving from ATL, and we ate Thanksgiving & Christmas dinner on our back porch. Everyone is much happier.
My point is to keep your options open as you prepare to make such a big decision. We had an "MSP only" mindset which kept us from doing our homework. It was ultimately the wrong decision for us...and a very expensive one at that.
