thanks in advance!

OT is currently available, but is best described as feast or famine most often. With the pilot shortage we seem to be losing on average 1 a week, so the OT opportunity may be more prevalent, but I’d just plan on 64. There is soft money for taking coach instead of business/first, but again I wouldn’t budget on it.

In general you’ll fly 25-45 and be paid 64. You will be on short/long call reserve at hotels all over the planet. Most lines are one block of 16 days, some lines are two blocks broken up.
