I would do a lot more research before making that decision, if I were you. As a commuter, I found that Atlanta had many more commutable trips than NYC. Also, look at the options for flights between the city pairs. I found I could get to ATL earlier and finish a trip later in the day and still have an opportunity to commute. What good is 50% seniority in NYC if you can't get commutable trips? You might be more likely to get that as a junior lineholder in ATL.

Alot of pilots, dispatchers, and former NWA corporate employees who commute to ATL during the week, plus of course flights are always full with paying pax. The nonrev list normally is well over 20 people deep most of the time.

Concur. Msp-Atl is always full. More options to NYC with lower loads. More Other airlines do Msp-NYC also, making it much easier than Atl.
