Overnight Question
 
Hello all,

Looking at all regional possibilities. I currently live in MEM and planning to commute for a while. While numerous other factors, looking for opinions on who has the most overnights in MEM, from which base, and how difficult they are to bid for.

Thank you!

Those details change month to month. (But in my experience, with numerous factors in my favor, even 1 per month consistently is tough)

horizon would be a poor choice, Otherwise just look on FlightAware and see who has departures before 10 AM. Those are the carriers that currently overnight in Memphis

and ease of commute would quickly swamp any home overnight possibilities

Heads up that MEM to any Delta hub is a disaster of a commute. Even New York is tough.

My advice would be to move out of Memphis.

Just because regional airline x is flying to Memphis this month dosent mean they will be doing it next month. Routes and overnights constantly change in the regional world . Don’t base your decision on that alone , if so you will be in for a big disappointment.

Unless the airline has a maintenance base at your location don’t go there specifically for the overnight. Regionals change routes all the time. If you’re gonna stick in Memphis find the easiest commute.....maybe ORD?

Easy. Just go to fedex. Problem solved.

“Easy” and “FedEx” in the same sentence. That is hilarious.
