From: HOTAS...and a SWA gear lever
Been on property since Apr 07. Here's where I stand in various domiciles (FO seat of course):
BWI 99%
DAL 93%
HOU 82%
LAS 67%
MCO 95%
MDW 92%
OAK 61%
PHX 66%
(lower % is better i.e. I'm 66% from the top in PHX)
FYI-October will be first time for me that PHX is slightly more junior than LAS (I think this will change back in Nov).
BTW-Flying domestic ain't old yet and don't forsee it happening. We live in a big country...PHX-BWI is plenty long for me. I'll take my vacations overseas and enjoy my SAN, FLL overnights in the meantime (along with a lot of other fine SWA cities) but that's just me, seems a little gentler circadian-wise and can usually do a skype goodnight with the kids. Of course, wouldn't mind a little San Juan or Toronto action either...

RUN!
Of course, if you skip that class date, it might just open up for me!
Everything in my opinion points to SWA unless you are dead set on international. I thought I was but I enjoy the 73 and shorter flights more than I thought I would. I wouldn't look forward to flying all night at this point in my life.

Want to do international, do the reserve thing? Flying domestic doesn't sound as glamerous, but it's alot easier on your body. Being within a couple of hours of your normal time zone makes life alot better.
