SEA-MCI may not be too bad of a commute as far as competition for the jumpseat. It's not a hub to hub commute which is a royal PITA anyway you slice it. The biggest downside is that the trips in MCI tend to start very early on day one and end late on the last day. That's gonna cost you a day off on both ends for the commute. ORD has a bunch more flights, but most likely has a lot more mainline guys jumpseating.
