What is church street? And you would choose MCO over ATL?


Church street is a spot with lots of bars and clubs. Good looking chicks too but someone posted that it may be on the decline. Lots of tourist so that's good and bad. Lots of golf course down there too. Don't really care to live in either city but MCO looks a lot cleaner. Non-reving out of there is a pain with high tourist loads.

One advice. As soon as you get your 1000 if you don't already have it, get out. Go to Xjet, Skywest or republic. The freedom side is better than the mesa side since delta requires something like 5.2 crews per plane so you won't experience nearly as much frustration as the ual side. Just remember that everything is run through phx.
 
It don't matter what you want, you are being shipped to ATL (JFK displacement possible this summer)...you are about to have all the ready reserve and standups that you can possibly handle. On your 8 days off, assuming you don't get Jr. Assigned, you will be so tired that you won't want to do anything but sleep and prepare for the next week in purgatory. There arn't going to be any more MCO awards anytime soon. This entire operation is being shipped north out of MCO as we speak.

The best advice anybody can offer you is to RUN, RUN VERY FAST before you get sucked into this place so far that you can't get out. That's the best that I ever got that I didn't follow.

Just because that is what the contract with Delta requires, does not mean that is what they get. We are under 4 crews per airplane in all bases right now.
 
looks like MCO is winning this one..What about the "Woman Factor"? who wins when it comes to women?

Just tell them you're a pilot and it works in any city:laugh:. Anyway, in MCO, anything from Downtown Churchstreet and west you're dealing with tourists. I lived in Winter Park, Oviedo, and Altamonte Springs for quite awhile and hardly ever dealt with the tourist factor unless friends came in town (It's always fun just once a year). Altamonte Springs is a decent area, some good places to go out except it takes a bit to get to the airport during rush hour.Winter Park is a nice area. Rollins College is there. The coeds are interesting! UCF is East of Winter Park. Actually a big school, with lots of students. Not too far at all from the employee lot (about 20-25 minutes). Those girls might buy into the "pilot" thing (since they probably don't know who Mesa is:D)
 
the trick to living in ATL is...kick someones a$$ the first day, or become someones beotch!

(kudos points for anyone who knows what movie that is from...just thought it was appropriate)
