Atlas Air Hiring
Thanks for the info, so I'm guessing the class dates are approximately 3 weeks apart. So next 777 class date approximately 4th of Jan 2022. I have been told on this forum the 777 has a more stable roster than the 747 which seems to be the way to go.
I know the 777 dos a lot of work for DHL Express (Bahrain hub of DHL) just wondering what are the major destinations they go to, a lot of Middle East or literally anywhere in the world like the 747?

777 is now fully integrated into one certificate and stands to reason that it will be used on more routes then previously.

Just applied, TT4000 TPIC 850. anyone here still in the Guard/Reserves? How is it getting off for drill. I'm sure they follow USERRA laws but do they help you get back if you need to leave a trip early (like for activation for a Hurricane). Other than that looking at either the 74 or the 76. Based on that if I live in the Orlando area are there any secret bases that aren't advertised? I saw that there was a Tampa Reserve assignment a few post back but not sure how it looks. Thanks!

8 of the 9 777s fly for DHL on various routes as dictated by DHL.
The remaining 777 flys for Caino (Alibaba) from Asia/LAX/Brazil/Chile.
These are relatively long-term, stable contracts that will not change in the near term. Unless airframes are added (doubtful with attrition/hiring challenges ) I do not see things changing anytime soon.

There are quite a few Atlas/Polar 747s & 767s flying for DHL. Polar is like an airline within an airline (Atlas). The Polar certificate is a partnership between Atlas (51%) and DHL (49%) and therefor solely flys DHL/Polar freight.
DHL
The BAH 777 flying has ended due to the withdrawal from Afghanistan. CVG is DHL’s major US hub with LAX being a secondary hub. The 777s mostly fly between those airports and ICN, HKG, SZX in Asia or go the other way to DHL’s major European hub of LEJ. There are other cities (ORD, JFK, MIA, ANC, EMA, MXP, etc) that come and go at the whims of DHL. The one constant in ACMI/CMI flying is change.
