MCO -NY commute

How reasonable is this commute on DL or JB for those Mickey Mouse residents based in NY?

4 yrs doing it, left behind only once maybe twice in that time. With LGA and JFK there are options all day long.

Heavily commuted. But lots of options. I think all/most flights between DL/B6 are 2 jumpseat airbuses right now, so lots of jumpseats available.

Yes, but the employee lot is becoming increasingly crowded and the bus ride is far from joyful.

90% of FLL pilots park in the parking structure because the parking situation is so bad.

Getting parking in MCO is easy, just have to go and apply in person at the parking office. Search non based crew member parking for MCO. It's $40/month. It's in the South Economy Parking lot. Busses run every 10 min. Not sure what the complaints about the lot being full are. In 6 years I've never had an issue parking there.
