The big one for me is an average of 2 more days off a month on the 900.

Honestly if you are a commuter to NYC and want to change to ATL, 900-200, you're taking a pay cut and probably having a tougher commute. I don't see many senior people doing that especially with a brand new base that may not have the best lines.

Absolutely. And as an FO, I can afford to pack or buy a meal that far exceeds the quality of an airline leftover meal. And I don't really mind the lack of automation on the 200, as I prefer to hand fly as much as I can anyway.
