June 1st class here. My buddy told me MIA is still very junior. I’m split on what to do for commuting purposes with MIA or MCO. Relative seniority move quicker (historically) in MIA? Flight frequency is higher with more carriers to MCO but my initial thought is the flying might be better. Any insiders like to weigh in with your thoughts?
Commuting from RDU…
Cheers!

MCO is our second-largest base, has a large variety of flying, and likely has more commutable trips. I know we have more than a few RDU commuters and many of them commute to MCO.
It's not much, but I hope it helps.

More flights per day is a really important factor. Plus, with MCO being a substantially bigger base I think you have more freedom in bidding, open time, etc.

At some point B.C. (Before Covid) we had 33 destinations from RDU ! It’s slowly growing back but yeah fairly large group of F9 people living there. If you are senior just like everywhere else life is good. Plus MCO, MIA and PHL are short flights.

May potentially seek a move to FL to a base, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t secretly hoping for an RDU base. I know speculation was there for the last few years. It appears other places like PHX are in line first, or seems to make more sense right now. But a guy can dream!

Someone should take a few minutes at look at how many of the routes overlap with ours.
And on specific days. I know we serve a lot of cities 3 or 4 days a week. Some of the overlap routes with Spirit could operate on different days.
This is going to be interesting to see how it plays out
