Sometimes I don't think the ones in charge even know what is happening with the window opening.

90% layovers are either SFO or LAX. Those 2 hotels are like my second home.

If it's a 4-day, the 1 and 4 is similar as described for 2-day, and days 2 and 3 are either up down west coast, or an additional transcon to east and back --- out day 2, back west day 3. Eg, one leg days, JFK-LAX, LAX-BOS, BOS-SFO, SFO-JFK.

I never attend a Job Fair.
Qual. 5860TT, 250 PIC, 2300 TT in Airbus, experience flying in South America, Bilingual. APT and ICAO license, currently flying F/O A319/320, so that means the qual. are not at all. You never know what are they looking for that specific day. 4 people writing every single answer from you, and I guess after that they mix them notes, check and decide who will fit at Virgin.
