If you are DFW based once you get to the line you will frequent Mexico, I'll leave it at that!

I've heard Ciudad Juarez and Nuevo Laredo are nice!

That could mean so much, how about a little insight?

Lots of Mexico flying out of DFW, tends to go junior because people normally don't like it. Flying international for a regional, Canada and Mexico normally is a hassle combined with the crime and stuff in Mexico and people don't rather stay on US soil. We haven't had issues with crew safety that we know of but people still rather not do it. Same can be said for Canada trips out of ORD.

I don't fly out of DFW so I can only go by what people say.

Heard the "smart" FO went for a smoke late at night solo around the hotel premises. Lack of common sense prevailed. Same thing could've happened in the USA.

Gents,
1. How many EMB FO's are based in NYC?
2. Is all flying scheduled (check in and releases) out/in of LGA? Anything from JFK or EWR? if so what percentage would you say?
3. Would you describe the trips – mostly 3-4 day or fair mix? Any cool flying you look forward to?
4. Is the EMB CA in NYC the most junior Captain position companywide?
Thank you very much.
