I started first of February. Finished school house training first of May. Had a few almost full weeks off in the middle mixed up between classroom and sims.
Since off reserve (3 months) I’m seeing about 15 days a month in a hotel with min (11-12) days off a month.
I was on reserve for 4 months after IOE completetion. I think my classmate in SEA was about the same.
The thing is a guy that started 2 months before me went straight into a line holder. But we just hired a pile of guys. So you’ll be behind all them. So probably more like the 3-6mths I’d reserve if you start early next year.
Once again. The plane is great the routes we fly are great. The hotels we stay in are mostly excellent! And the best part are the crews. We have awesome people to work with.
