Do any of you actually commute from or to ATL? I commute Chicago to ATL and between ORD and MDW and the 6 or so airlines that fly that route I have 35ish choices a day to get to work. It isn't bad at all. Now something like ATL-MCO or ATL-TPA would suck real bad.

If you're at an AA wholly owned your status is equal to mainline for every seat except an AA mainline Jumpseat. It's based on check-in. Something to consider, as being in-base is preferable.

Not Horizon Air

You're basically an AA pilot when flying for a wholly owned!

I would second this. Endeavor should be your first choice by a long shot. ATL PHL isn't bad making PDT a good second choice.

Any info on Westcoats based regionals?

Currently living in Southern California would like to be able to commute out of LAX or ONT

For west coast Skywest.

I live in Virginia, and I am considering IAD and DCA based airlines for QOL. Of regionals based at IAD and DCA, I have narrowed it down to CommutAir, Republic, and PSA. Which of those three would be best? I don't care about equipment.

Air Wisconsin should be added to your list as well, certainly above CommutAir.

My general concern with Air Wisconsin, is that after their contract with United expires in five years, they probably won't be resigned with another carrier. I maybe see more long term stability in another company. Or, should I not be worried about that? I have heard good things about AWAC.
