Ok, thank you for answering all the questions.

I verified with Breeze they do have a contract with Delta, so I'd be able to commute from Atlanta. From reading on here Charleston is where the new hires are going as well and there are tons of flights with Delta there and back every day. Got a couple of more questions as I build up my Breeze knowledge. I searched through the thread with keywords but did not see any answers. I have a cjo with Endeavor Air since they based in Atlanta, but am very interested in Breeze for a variety of reasons.

1. In a given week that is reduced to 5 days, how many of those days would I typically work? Rather than the total days off a month.

2. In general what is the first and last go of the day? I'm seeing the first flight from ATL to CHS arrives at 9:41am (tomorrow as an example), so could I commute in the morning off and then do a day turn. If not I don't have a problem flying in the night before.

 

No offense/nothing personal, but this says it all. Hope you get what you want ...

 

Jump seating out of ATL on Delta will not be a ‘breeze’ — pun intended.

 

JS out of Atlanta even for DAL pilots can be challenging. Good thing is DAL can fill available empty seats with multiple off line JS’s, bad is there aren’t that many most of the time

 

I've commuted almost all of my career. Unless you plan on moving into base with Breeze, it would be extremely foolish (I would use another word but I'm trying to be diplomatic) to not take Endeavor's job offer.

Here's what I recommend you do. Just for shats and giggles, jumpseat to CHS on your days off. See how you like it. Not just a couple of times. Do it a minimum of half a dozen times in a single month.

 

And then try it over a holiday weekend at least once.

 

Then try it with and without candy for the gate agent

 

Ok I believe you guys.

Last question before I call it a day and go to Endeavor…would just simply driving from Atlanta to Charleston work? I still don’t know how many of the days b/w Thursday to Monday I’d actually be working. It sounds like it would be a random days and not like a 2 or 3 days in a row where driving/commuting could work.

 

The schedules were sporadic when I was in CHS. Lots of single days with a day off between or 2-3 days with a day of between. Commuting was rough. Would stay on the road for weeks at a time with that schedule. Reserve was slightly better but not by much with only 11 off.


Go to EDV.

 

Was at Breeze for a bit, I would NOT pass up Endevour. Even a super easy commute sucks, doing it at Breeze is downright miserable.
