Any commuters on here who can share their experience?



Also, since the rotations are 6 months, what do pilots do for housing at their bases? Sharing an apartment? Renting rooms?



Any current pilots with Cape Air please chime in. Thanks!


Captain schedules vary by base, some are 4/4 some are 3/4 4/3, some are 4/3, etc. The FOs are almost all just 4/4 for simplicity...

Many FOs upgrade before 6 mos, but otherwise yes people have different housing and roommate arrangements in different places that are sometimes handed down...
