Just a quick, cursory glance at ORD, there seems to be quite a few flights in and out of ORD, would this cannabilze a DTW base, or would it be in addition to the DTW base?

I'd think ORD would become quite popular as a base.
There is a chart floating around the Internet as of recent done as a study by The Centre for Aviation which depicted the ASM's for all Spirit bases and focus cities. I'll try to find it but it was interesting to see the difference in amount between DTW and ORD

Healthy. Most all new hires are put there first. Mostly a paper thing.

Yes it would. Hopefully you get on board. ACY is really senior or really junior on the FO side. Guys that live in base have a great advantage to make big credit...of course depending on seniority.

ACY would be a long commute from Little Rock.

'Course, I'm trying to move to Florida, Tampa or FLL area.

ACY is mostly temporary for those not wanting it as a permanent base

That's good to know. Nothing against Atlantic City, or New Jersey, just not where I see myself living long-term. But, who knows...
