I'll throw in another piggyback and ask about the SF Bay Area/OAK. Which fleet would be the best?

OAK is a pretty big city for us. The 767 does OAK, SFO and SJC. The MD11 does a ton of OAK and those trips trickle all the way down to the bottom guys on the regular. I’d say either or those.

ATL, DFW, DEN and JAX are probably the most in demand domestic jumpseats. It is a supply and demand problem. That said you can make it work from anywhere.

With that said, seniority is everything. Go where you can be most senior the soonest, you’ll have more options in a big market like Oakland.

Thanks all. Even though the MIA/FLL area is not high on my list of places to live, are the commuting options are equal to those out of TPA?

...and ORF.... TLH and MOB get some pressure from Gulf Coast commuters as well.
