Time away is a consideration. And thats why Im trying to figure it out. (The reality of how the airline goofy schedules work). my family and I are used to goofy. I fly part time contract for a UPS feeder (essentially for fun) and work 24 hr shifts 9 days a month at my full time job.
Actual face to face time im guessing will be almost a wash.
But I like being able to sleep at the end of the day and thats one reason Im thinking of trying my luck at an airline.
As I get older being up for what seems like days at a time gets harder.
