767: More predictabilitiy. 30% International work. 10ish on 10ish off. CVG is junior right now but it often changes between ONT and CVG. Less money by the hour and less money due to fewer credit hours. Instant coffee crystals.

Schedule: 76 has more split lines, 74 has less.
Types of flying: 74 is a constant adventure, 76 you’ll need some seniority to go to “exotic” destinations.
QOL: Eye of the beholder my friend. The 76 is generally regarded as the QOL program at Atlas. But I’m sure the 74 works well for a lot of folks. (i.e. - if you live in South Florida the 74 is your jet of choice...when you can hold it. If you live around CVG, probably wanna go 76)
Pay: 74
Cheers,

I think the lesson to be learned here is, bring your own coffee.

You can get this thing when it's on sale for about ten dollars. It'll do a decent cup of coffee with any k-cup. Overseas instant cups come in different sizes (like for Ily machines, etc.) so you may wind up carrying some k-cups along with you.

Last 4 posts are what it’s really all about. Quality of life. Never knew how good I had it 74 wise (I Kid). “He never has two cups of coffee when he’s at home!” For the older folks...
