Which Midwest regional? STL/MCI?
Hello all,
I’m looking at jumping to a regional soon. I live between STL and MCI and would like to be able to drive to work. Either location is drivable. I was curious what regionals people would recommend since I don’t fully understand the environment. I know Trans States & Go Jet are at STL and Republic is at MCI but I’ve heard MCI is extremely senior for them. Any advice would be great! I’ve tried doing some digging but all I seem to see is doom and gloom on their respective forums so it seems tough to make a decision. Thanks y’all!

You can get MCI on a vacancy bid while still in training at Republic (just happened for a March new hire in ground training). Go read the Republic “New Hire Base Drops and...” thread. Worst case you would commute to one of the big, junior bases for a month or two out of training. Best case you get MCI in training and ask crew scheduling to move you early/go there after training and they let you - has happened for multiple people.
