The question is Atlanta or Orlando?
I am just throwing it out there and any input is appreciated - sarcastic or sincere.
I used this forum last year and ended up in Doylestown, PA and enjoyed it.
Thanks.

If you "enjoyed it" why would you leave for a lifetime of commuting?

BOS not easy but doable; at least you can drive or train it if you have to and there are multiple carriers serving it. As stated above, a ton of senior commuters.
I did Greyhound once. Living the dream. Seriously though Boston can be a breeze one week and a disaster the next. Keep an eye out for college breaks. LGA and shuttle is there when really in a pinch. At least the Q400's are gone, that was an epic fail.

How about TPA-EWR? Anybody have any feedback? Thinking about the FL life....you know, sun, boats, and old people.

I will be in that commute starting here in a few weeks. I have been told it's horrible , having been flying for Jetblue for the last 4 years. I commonly flew TPA-EWR, and we always have United guys coming with us that say if it wasn't for jetblue they would never get to work, problem is jetblue currently only has 2 flights a day. Not too much to choose from , always can use LGA and JFK as back ups but man those airports aren't really close.

Been told Orlando is easier cause of the amount of flights

You really would screw up your good deal to do a commute? That's nuts.
