As for the scheduling question, the best you will be able to do with the preferential bidding system we use is two big work blocks requiring two commutes (only 1 in a vacation month) a month. You can waive certain restrictions as a lineholder and compress your trips into two workable blocks of flying. It was stated earlier that the Guam base has the ability to compress even more than the lower 48 domiciles which is true. Guam based pilots can work a single work block a month with several weeks off in between. Might be worth considering. EWR 737 FO on reserve to start will be tough but doable with two work blocks of reserve days. Best of luck!

The most days off you will get in one chunk will be 4, unless you go to the 757, then you get a block of 6 days off. Once you have a line you will probably have a schedule of 4 on 3 off, with the trip either starting early or ending late. You can trade things around and try to get larger blocks of days off, but as with everything else, seniority helps this a lot. I commuted from Europe for awhile but was mid level seniority on a global fleet so was able to bunch all my flying together.

good luck
