ATL Base
So I was planning on Skywest back in 2019, did the cadet program, spoke to some people there and they said the ATL base was for sure staying and the LGA base was going away soon. Fast forward to COVID and the ATL base closed almost instantly.
I wrote off Skywest completely once this happened because the only real draw was having a base at home between Endeavor and Skywest. My friend recently got a new class date and apparently, his recruiter told him that ATL might be reopening pending new contracts and negotiations?
Does anyone know more about this? I haven't heard or seen anything other than what he told me. I know you can't trust rumors or what a recruiter tells you so I was just curious if there was more to it.

If the “only real draw” for you was OO having a base in Georgia, I’d look elsewhere.

Pretty much what I figured. Most of my family is here and it's really all I have ever known. I guess commuting couldn't hurt, right?

Live in base if you can make it happen - move to a OO base or stick with Endeavour
