Worst case scenario if they close it you'll go to PDX/SEA not the worst commute. I was BOI based for a few bids it was real nice out there. Cost of living isn't bad and there's plenty of fun to be had out there. Enjoy QX and enjoy BOI life's to short to worry about all the other garbage.

Food for thought. SkyWest is building what might be their largest MX base in Boise. There is a lot of speculation to more flying originating there (DL or AS maybe), because at the moment its not that big of a market to justify a massive hanger worth tens of millions. Boise city I think threw some money at the project too. My point: its likely Boise may become a SKW domicile at some point. We have domiciles at about every other MX base, and they would be much smaller than Boise (Ex. FAT, COS, PSP, TUS). Even if you don't get a home base, SFO, PDX, DEN, SLC, LAX and SEA are commutable.
The news of the MX base is official, as well as statements saying it may be our largest. Everything else is conjecture.

17 flights per day on your own metal isn't that bad.
