Anyone able to comment on the MSP-DTW commute for those of us who don't get MSP immediately out of training?

There are lots of two leg options. Many are on RJs, and I actually like that. That is because as a standby you get on last, but if you pink tag your bags you are not fighting for sparse overhead space. There is usually at least one 757 flight, too, and I don't think I've ever seen one full unless some event caused bumped pax.

You will get MSP very soon, I'm sure.

The nice thing about Endeavor is that if you don't get your base of choice initially in training, you will likely be able to bid it before training is over, or perhaps the bid after. No one seems to get "stuck" where they don't want for very long like they do at other places.

I just want to make sure it won't leave a black mark on my record (since they are owned by Delta) or they won't make me pay the CTP class for canceling a reservation or something weird like that.

Golden Rule, man...treat the company the way you'd want to be treated. Handle it like a grown up, respectfully rescind your CJO and move on.

Just don't think that going elsewhere will give you an easier path to Delta, if that's where you want to fly in the future. Do share your greener pasture story - very interested in hearing what's better than what 9E has on the table.

It's more like 65% in DTW & NY.
