ATI Information
I am thinking of applying to ATI. Could someone give me an idea of the typical schedule? Is it possible to bid domestic flying in the first year? Can you break up the 18 day schedule instead of being gone for 18 days?

We also have LITS (long international trip sequence)
In short you're out longer, you make rig, second half of bid will have more days off.
It sounds really scary but you get to the point you like the long string of days off.
You also have to bid twice for vacation (long story of that snafu) but you can on occasion get over a month off sometimes 2 by getting creative.

FAJ and CTR are correct, except that for now, we do not use the LITS provision. Our longest trips are 16 days at the moment. And with our current expectations, there should be no need to use it. But the basic premise is 16 days "on" and 12 days "off". Most travel is on your days "on", but that may vary depending on where you live.
Good luck!

Yeah, we are stretched with Amazon right now. Actually, our line that utilized LITS ended. It is however a side letter agreement and may be implemented, just a FYI.
Also, don't be holding your breath on it. I know for a fact that our line builder in scheduling has/is trying to do week on week off like we had years ago. I think as Amazon and ILN grow this could be a possibility.
Personally in my whole career the week on week off was my favorite schedule. Not to long to be out and a week off was just right.

Oh adding one more thing
If we had someone on our scheduling committee that had some serious testicular fortitude or perhaps would treat a deserving crew scheduler (who is single in a small town) to a good time we'd get week on week off. No doubt in my mind
Just sayin

The 7 on 7 off has been batted around by Crew Planning/Scheduling for awhile since we started Amazon. The idea is just kinda stalled out right now. It's just that they are a bit inundated with planning new lines and also subbing in for Training Scheduling. But it's coming.
