For quality of life and not commuting it's hard to beat NetJets. AFAIK only some cargo carriers offer home basing along with a few of the Fractionals. I won't speak to the pay since I've been gone for 4 years but the vacation is very good. After 10 years and assuming the 7-7 schedule you get 21 days off in a row 4 times per year. Almost a part-time job. When I was looking at 7-7 lines it seemed most of them worked half the holidays so you can plug that into your spreadsheet. Another vacation consideration is hotel and airline rewards. My wife and I spent a week in Hawaii with 1st Class Airline CLT-HNL and hotel completely covered by rewards. We just paid for rental car, food, and activities.

Since pay seems to be such a wide spectrum, could I get a someone to help review a spreadsheet I’ve created for pay on the 7/7 schedule? I’ve tried to attach a copy/screenshot here but I can’t seem to make it happen.

P.S. Before the “go to a major” guys come out, I live in an area that would be a nightmare commute and don’t really want to move.
