MCO Commuters
For the MCO Commuters-
What is the best base/equipment for a MCO commuter to bid for? (In regards to ease of commute, considering # flights, seats avail, and MCO overnights.)
Is it a difficult place to commute out of?
Thanks in advance, and have a great weekend everyone!

Even though there a ton of flights to ATL, the JSs get snapped up cause there a ton of commuters.
On the plus side..it’s a short commute, and there are flights from about 0530-2200 every hour (plus some offline).
If you live a bit NE, Daytona has about 4-5 flights a day, and the jumpseats don’t seem to get snatched up as much.
Pick the airplane you can get senior on. Junior, reserve, and commuting don’t mix

I fly the ER out of LAX. Cannot avoid MCO being junior. Fortunately I like it. I’m there so much I should be paying FL income tax! I know they don’t have that, but just sayin’. Sometimes I fly the nonstop LAX-MCO and the other way. High load factors, but not once have I had a jumpseater. But I more often fly MCO-ATL where the loads are equal to or greater than 199 of 199. I’d say the cockpit jumpseat is taken 1/4 of the time but the FA jumpseats run near 100%.
Not sure I’d endorse any transcon commute, but if you got on jr. equipment it might not be a bad option.
