Default Commute from the Southeast?

Hello,

I have class dates from both Republic and PSA. Really struggling to come to the 'right' decision. It's a good problem to have, but a problem nonetheless.

How is the commute from the southeast to one of the NY area bases? Thinking Newark or LGA from CLT/CHS.

I remember reading only 13-ish non-mil guys went to the legacy's from RPA last year. How is the movement this year? Is it looking better?

Thanks folks.

Much much better. I’ll let someone else answer your commute question, but why would you got to Republic when PSA has a CLT base?

Commuting to NY when you can drive to CLT? Terrible mistake.

I’m not opposed to moving, but obviously it’s difficult to relocate when you don’t know which base you’ll have and training is no guarantee, etc.

Also to hold CLT at PSA takes some time as well.

As mentioned I wouldn’t commute. Even the easiest commute is worse then living in base. You will save money by not commuting also.

It takes less than a year as an FO and less than 3 on the Captain side of things. You’d be commuting intermittently the first few years at PSA vs the whole time at RAH...

Now the million dollar question - assume living in base.

Republic vs PSA?

Lol

How far off is your class date at Republic compared to PSA?

If you live in CHS, I would go PSA.
