Envoy in base or PSA as a commuter???
Currently living in DFW, family has no desire to move again until we hit a mainline. Need to decide between Envoy or commuting with PSA? Do know about new contract at PSA which makes it less of a pay cut from where I'm currently at. If I can get DCA with PSA, I could crash pad with mom, but that means dealing with mom which brings it's own discomfort. Keep reading to live in base if you can, but the low Envoy pay bites. Based on current environment what would be your preference between the two? Why?

It’s really up to you, but there are better options nowadays than Envoy. I’d take a strong look at PSA for better pay and work rules and maybe even SkyWest for DFW.

My issues with Envoy want me to say go with PSA, however your qol will be better if you get the 175 dfw and dont have to commute. In addition, Envoy may well pull a rabbit out of their hat and improve all of those areas, making it the best choice for you by far.
I am glad I dont have that choice to make right now.

Regionals are completely different jobs when not commuting.
No comparison.
