I've heard Florida-NYC is a workable commute, so I'd suggest somewhere with a strong NYC presence.
Endeavor is you want LGA/JFK (we are expanding out of there currently)
Commutair seems a good option if EWR is your preference.

Disclaimer, I work at Endeavor. We have a few guys doing DTW to TPA, FLL, and the like commutes and it seems managable for the most part, but NYC would be your best bet.

Is it doable while on reserve?

I'd look pretty hard at Commutair...serious opportunity there right now. Both bases are fairly simple commutes from FL.

Quick glance at JFK-MCO showed a fair few flights every day on Delta, American, and JetBlue.
LGA appears to have a few more Delta options each day.

Not sure how long reserve on the 200 will be in NYC, base isn't officially open yet.

Allegiant is a regional with an Orlando base, and the FAA is scoping out their mx dept. so there will be less emergency landings!

If I were starting my career, I would choose one with a flow, not a bridge program or a preferred interview...But, if you know someone that will help you to secure a job in the airline that you are willing to work for, for sure, go Skywest or TSA group... In less than a year, there will be plenty of options...best of luck !!!!

If you bid high speeds then it makes communtung easy.

Can you clarify for this noob what "high speeds" means? :confused:

Just look at the daily flights between MCO and DAB and whatever domicile you would hold for different airlines. Endeavor out of their soon to be opened LGA base wouldn't be too bad. PSA has CLT. CommutAir has IAD. GoJet had RDU. I'd go somewhere with an interview or a flow with a mainline partner.

9E has bases in JFK/LGA already open, the only things opening are 200 bases in those 2 airports. The 900 has been there a long while.
