Day-off pay for first year FOs is now minimum $639/$739/$839 for days one, two, and three.
The numbers are off a little. Should be $703/$803/$903.

That, and you also get that pay if you volunteer to fly on an “off” day.

Yes, sometimes. But not enough to count on it.

12.

Yes. It’s new.

Some commercial air travel. Depends on fleet type. Business or better on international flights longer than 3 hours unless you opt for payout.

Yes we keep our miles.

Typical destinations can be fleet specific. Expect to see SNN, RMS, and KWI.

Overnights are anywhere from 11 hours to 7 days. 7 days being rare but I’ve had it. 11 hours is not very common either. Just depends.

I’m fairly new at Omni but these are my experiences so far.

*Not business or better. Business if available. If it's full you're back in coach.

If it’s full, of course you seat in the back. That’s what FULL means Genius. Unless you want to kick other passengers out of their seats.

Just for you, I'll elaborate...

Business or better would imply that if Business Class is not available, that you would be booked in a BETTER class of service, i.e. First Class, or not at all. Companies that offer Business or better to their pilots do not have the option of booking Coach period. This is not the case at Omni. They can still put you in Coach if Business Class is not available regardless of First Class being wide open. I was merely clarifying the claims in the previous posts.

My math sucked. It’s updated now.

My fault and I didn’t catch it. It’s Business if available.

Thanks for the clarification. Now let’s see..
How many airlines nowadays offer a Business vs First class option ?
Not many.
But assuming they did.. What if First class was also full ?
Is the only option then to keep one away from home until a suitable class becomes available?
