Not impossible to get an interview but you’re definitely going to have to go to one or more job fair / meet and greet / virtual fair and make a favorable impression there in order to get noticed.

Do you know where I can find future meet and greets/job fairs? I'm very interested. I'm in a similar boat... I live in St Pete and would love the TPA base. 2700TT mostly all 135 turbine time but no TPIC.

Thanks in advance

Mostly anecdotal. I know of at least 10 CAs that currently commute from ATL or a nearby airport that are planning on bidding it. Also, Frontier hired a lot of Expressjet ATL pilots between 2015 and 2019. Many have moved away to different domiciles, but some are still commuting from ATL. Lastly, the closer to Denver a base is, the more senior it is. For CAs our senior bases are (in order) DEN, LAS, ORD, PHL, MCO, TPA, MIA. I believe ATL will likely fall between ORD and PHL.

ATL will be an easier commute for a lot of commuters along the east coast, Gulf coast, Texas, parts of the mid west, etc.

Yeah, I don't think picking ATL because "it's a good commute option" is in the realm of good ideas...

You can literally say that about any base. Commuting sucks period, especially at Frontier with a lack of own metal. If you 2 leg it to MIA and can 1 leg it to ATL you’re prob going to go with ATL. Guess we’ll see.
