Raleigh is a 2 leg commute from FL. TSA and RAH may offer you one leg commutes but they won't be short and you may find yourself having to either come in the night before a trip/reserve period starts and leave the day after a trip/reserve period ends because I don't think some of their bases have high frequency flights (I could be wrong). I chose PSA because I live in FL and their CLT base is an easy 1-leg commute. Been here less than a year, holding a 90 hour credit line in December. Ymmv but if you want to stay in FL, your options may be limited if you still want something resembling decent qol.

There are plenty of airlines flying RDU to multiple destinations in FL.

Do NOT choose a regional solely on bases. They can open and close at the drop of a hat.

But with enough frequency to cover a companies commuter clause?

From what I see, there are 6 departures today from MCO. Is that enough?

I'm curious what you think is a good thing to look for in choosing a regional then.
