As far as the extra pay for staying over a weekend, I know a couple guys who cleaned up on that last year.
Can definitely imagine that extra dough being put to good use! So does the breakfast inclusion negate a per diem amount or do they hook floaters up with that too?

Thanks


Best to call the MAC main number and ask for HR.

Default Is MCO gateway or Base?

Just wondering if MCO is a gateway or base? How can I check what is a base or gateway?

MCO is a based position for the C208 but a gateway position for the ATR.


Gateway means there is NOT an airplane based at your home airport. Ex.ATL,ORD,CLT,DFW
You can typically expect to be airlined out on Monday and home on Friday.

Positive space travel with hotel and rental car.

Based/floater means that there are airplane ms and Fedex lines at your home airport. Ex.MEM,IND,BUF,SYR,GSO,MIA

Some weeks you are airlined out and others you will fly from your home airport line for the week.

I believe DFW is a gateway base for the ATR.
