Express Jet vs Eagle
I am not familiar with either, can someone give some comparisons? I have interviews with both, but not sure which operation is more sound. From my reading it looks like Expressjet might be the better choice, but looking for more opinions. If there is already a thread about this, please point me in the right direction.

Well...XJT while not perfect, isn't too bad. Pay seems to be at the higher end among regional carriers. Reserve rules are also good. Downside is a rather difficult merger in the works, but that won't affect a new hire too much.
Eagle? I don't know that much about. They're staring at a rather difficult situation with the American merger. Perhaps they'll see a lot of movement as American/USAir starts to hire.

Honestly right now it's a crap shoot.
To to both, if you have 2 offers then decide, until then, act like you want to go to both. Eagle is tough now with an uncertain future, however, expressjet, until recently was somewhat stagnant

That's a pretty easy commute to DFW, as far as commutes go. Guys who commute between DFW-ORD will sometimes go DFW-XNA-ORD because it's easier to get on those flights then the direct one many times.
