Default Commuting out of KPNS

Hey all, I know there are more pressing topics to discuss such as the TA....but I'd be grateful for any info as far as how manageable or difficult commuting out of PNS would be? Based on Spirit bases, it looks like the only bases that would allow a 1 leg commute would be ATL, HOU, or DFW.

I know there are a lot of retired military folk now commuting out of PNS so just curious on if you all think it would be possible (or an absolute pain in the ass). Thanks in advance!

Military commuters like ants. Good luck

I commuted from IAD to Europe for years.
Was it possible? Yes.
Was it a PITA? Yes.
Was I planning to do it for the rest of my career? #ell no.

That’s going to be a tough one. Had to go into PNS for something a while back and it was a bear getting out of there with all the commuters.

At my previous airline, I knew quite a few people who commuted out of PNS to DFW. AA had some commutable times there, and from what I understand, many guys had the options of PNS, VPS, or in severe cases ECP if any of those are available to you as well.
