Thank you
Kew Gardens is probably your best bet.

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.
Thank you for the input!

Do you commute from MSP to ATL? That is one of/if not the hardest commute in the system besides DFW-ATL.

Wow, I didn't realize it was that tough

No, I am a FL commuter. I did NYC for about 6 years, and ATL for about a year and a half now.

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.

What Indoc class are you speaking of?

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.
