There is much to be said for having a multitude of days off in a row to spend with family / kids than when home every day in the but running on fumes when you finish a shift doing 6 sectors and dealing with WX and PAX all day only to have min rest to do it all again the next day. Everyones values are different, its just what works best for you and your family. However some of the gents on my intake course who are just turning 24/25 are single and about to fly the world over have got some of the best experiences coming their way!
