They're interviewing in MIA this week, so HR might be tied up. Send them an email if you don't hear soon.

Watch this video this is What we need to do.

Also in January 16 they can have the Christmas party for themselves.
How are you going to go to your ex-wife party 2 days after the divorce and expected to act like nothing happens. they can have it for themselves. I rather stay in the hotel doing barbecue. Than listen to Carlson bullsh............

Schedule examples;

This was a wealth of information, thank you for posting. Unfortunately, a lot of the info is also 3 years or more yrs old. It appears news hires go to the 767 CVG base. Does reserve go junior and do junior FO's to have the option to have R1 for an entire month? I wish all the best in negotiations to the Atlas pilots, I am have a decision to make and am trying to gain all the info I can. I've read a lot in this thread, all very helpful. Thank you.

Also, just to be clear, no matter where you live, whether a reserve or line holder, you are positive spaced to base? Am I correct in this? If I live in Florida and I happen to be assigned ANC, that is my concern.

It depends if your domicile airport is listed as a gateway airport or not.

If the company needs you to fly out of some out of the way city, they will commercial you there on their time. If you gateway to your base, it is on your time.

They will impute the cost of the airfare to your base for taxes and treat it as income on your pay statement. If the ticket to Anchorage cost $1000, and if you have to commute 4 times, it will appear as if you had earned an additional $4000 at the end of the month. You will pay the IRS as if you had earned that fictional money.

The vast majority of lines in CVG have at least some Asia flying on them. There are only a handful of "domestic" only lines (by domestic I mean flying the DHL sort nightly), but several 60 day lines are split between Asia and CVG hub flying. Out of approximately 30-34 lines (which seems to have been the average over the past year or so), there are usually only 4-5 reserve lines, and most of those are R2 in TPE or NRT.

Hybrid lines, which have 3-4 days of R2 or sometimes R1 at the beginning or end of the month are also common.

One thing to be aware of on the 767 in CVG, you will be paid off of the trip rig. Our lines do not have enough block hours to break the 62 hour minimum, so you end up getting paid 4.85 hours of credit per 24 hours away from base. In just over 2 years, my highest block hour total in any single month has been 45 hours.

I've consulted the index, but didn't find this info: during training in Miami, do you have weekends off? Do you have any days off? I've heard references to rare days off. Are they one at a time? Or time to jump seat home for a day or two? Any method to the system? Thanks!
