Boston Area Bases?
 
I know PenAir has a BOS base, any plans for anyone else to open a BOS domicile or in the Boston area?

JetBlue has one. CapeAir and Wiggins have close ones.

If you are looking for regionals, your best bet might be an NYC base. I have heard Boston-NYC isn't a terrible commute too.

Try Endeavor. Easy commute to LGA and Jfk. A ton of flights and worst case you can still drive or take the train. If the new TA passes this month you'll get a parking stipend and you can use your new hire bonus to rent a very nice crash pad. Plus once you hold a line you'll get company paid hotels if you get stuck in NYC unplanned during your trip.

That commute is horrendous. It used to be stupidly easy but now everything both ways is jam packed. And forget getting home out of NYC to Boston on a weekend.

I work at Endeavor and commute from BOS.

I still think it's the easiest commute in America. 50 flights per day to LGA, JFK, EWR.

Weekend schedule is much reduced- plan accordingly.

How many jumpseats does Eastern have on the L-188 shuttle flights? Is the Connie weight restricted during the summer months? The A300 has some issues, weight bearing something because of the main gear, out of LGA too so keep that in mind. The DC-9 has the old -7 engines so forget that. All the 72's are at Trump Shuttle now but not sure if they'll take you. Delta just got the PAA shuttle and New York air moved to Dulles so things are a mess right now.
