“THEY” may want you there, but can you share what the average line values are actually published? I know it varies base to base.
3 months you may get some high 120’s. then you will be burn out. Maybe get 70-80 the other 3 months. Lol. |

Far from burnt out, the schedules are so easy compared to regionals. *Regionals, Main Line, Purple, Brown, etc. - hell hath no fury like the optimizer! A recent schedule of mine had several art33 double turns drop out and replaced with multiple back to back domestic runs with min rest. Initially thought what a sweet deal being a pay protected line, but after those continuous monotonous repetitious back and forth groundhog days with boring layovers I was spent. Definitely prefer variety and I’m made for odd hour/rolling departures with longer layovers vs daily status quo salt mine flying schedules seeing nothing new (just not me, others definitely prefer it.) Don’t know how you guys did it - it’s exhausting for myself. ANC continues to kill it, good stuff right there. **Hopefully everyone can see there’s more than one way to skin a cat here. Not black and white - definitely gray. |

Well done! You probably don’t conflict bid, unless your bid line wasn’t high enough and you gambled with them to create a higher line or they kept the first portion you were awarded that had high leg times - it’s an art. VX/OT during vacation, another good deal if one desires trading time off for some extra clams . I disappear for nearly two months sometimes more and forget I have a job for the min guarantee so that’s the flip side (I do get restless near the end to roam globally again). Bullseye with calling out sick 3-4 times a year depending on your track record in other areas = attitude, fatigue, etc. Haven’t done the litmus test on this, but know a few who who press up to 5, but they tend to mitigate the spot light with VX/OT tactics to their benefit. It’s all recorded so YMMV.

Not black and white - definitely gray. There is so much variety at this airline, and within your fleet with a little bit of seniority you can vary that almost monthly if you feel like it. Atlas is the least black and white operation I can imagine existing anywhere. |
Atlas air 737 roster
Hi,
Just wanted to get an insight on the roster pattern for 737 out of CVG & others bases for an FO. Also what are your thoughts on commuting from Oz ? Any suggestions/ ideas will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance Coldbay |

Thanks in advance Coldbay If you’re commuting from anywhere in Oz other than SYD…this would be even worse. |

Commuting from Oz would result in you burning 4-6 days commuting to/from each trip. Add that to 17 and it sucks. Add that to a split line going to work 3-5 times in 60 days and it really sucks.

Personally i would recommend something other than the 73 and on the west coast or Anchorage
I agree with you that a ANC or SoCal base would be far better for somebody commuting from Oz. |
