Default Central American domicile?

In a recent mgmt update, the idea of a crew domicile with 5th freedoms was mentioned.

My $ is on Costa Rica. Any other bets?

5th Freedom:

From ICAO Freedoms of the Air

#5. The right to fly between two foreign countries on a flight originating or ending in one's own country.

Example: A flight from the United States to Hong Kong, flown by a Hong Kong airline, with a full stop in Vancouver. Passengers and cargo may board or disembark the flight in Vancouver, with no intention to continue the flight to Hong Kong

More examples: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free..._air#/editor/8

This was alluded to at the job fair. I specifically remember Rocky saying "We are excited about the 737-8MAX which will allow us to hit places further down in south america with just one stop." So I would think Costa Rica or Panama would be the likely candidates to launch further south....Santiago, Buenos Aires, Sao Paulo, etc.
