Pretty sure no South America for them, I could be wrong. Just remember that if you commute ACY is a no bueno, unless you drive it.

Anyone do an ATL-FLL commute or something like it? I'd just like some confirmation that it is indeed miserable or some hope. Either's fine.

There are lots of flights but it is quite challenging as there are many delta pilots and regional pilots doing it. The good news is that as a line holder most atl guys trade trips between all the bases because they are right in the middle of everything except vegas. My advice would be not to bid Fll on rsv and then bid the fist base you can hold a line a swap between them all.

Well, you'll get ACY right away, most of the captains are cool, trips are okay, usually a lot of open time to change your schedule around, parking is literally a two minute walk to the terminal (if that). If you're okay with being an FO for at least 6 years, come on over.

I used to flight instruct at RJ Miller.
