THere was a dbag in my differences class who was extremely bitter because he'd "Been lied to..."
The lies?
#1. That when Independance Air shut down the pilots were promised to go along with the certificate, wherever it went. Therefore, he should have been seniority number 1 at Compass, and already at Delta by now.
#2. PinnaColBa promised him an MSP base, in 2011, when MSP was the most senior base, when he was hired.
He brought this crap up multiple times during the course. I asked him if he actually understood how the airline industry worked, and he said yes.
He's now at a Japanese carrier and I'm sure he will get the boot when he shames a captain in front of a superior. Idiots.
No such thing as a promise in this industry, and you are foolish for believing anything that isn't in a contract (and still take those with a grain of salt).

This has been answered like 5 times... It's not an easy commute. Mainline guys take priority on most flights.

DTW and MSP are tough. A hefty amount of mainline commuters AND between DLs Asia gateways. Just very very difficult. I would advise against it.
The reason you can't find anyone who has actual experience is because they all bid NY to get away from it.

I know and have flown with a few guys who have done ATL-NYC and they say it's doable, but tricky during the high times.

ATL to New York is possible. ATL to either DTW or MSP, you better work for mainline with 20+ years and still have a few S2's stashed away.
