Fractional or charter

Work days and spend basically no time in a hotel?
Small corporate aircraft or charter (likely flying piston aircraft or at most a king air)

Have a majority of yours days off, but subject to change with little notice?
Large corporate

Schedules days off with the flexibility to change your schedule to fit a particular months needs?
Airlines


Most people compromise between schedule and money.

Major airlines will give you the best of both and the jobs are plentiful so most people make that their goal.
Thanks for the inside information. That gives me a good idea of what to consider when I get there someday...
