I just started working for OO as an FO and with the current hiring wave in the industry I’m starting to think about what my long range goals are. I live in Colorado Springs, CO and would like to grow roots here so a home based job is more appealing to me. International widebody flying is also on my list of goals so Omni seems like a good destination for me. My question is in the collective opinion will Omni drop the 1000 121 PIC requirement in the near future like the majors are doing? Should I apply anyways once hitting 2000 hours?

Omni just posted an ad on Planejobs that cites 2000 total time, 1000 PIC. There's no mention of 1000 121 PIC.

I guess I misread that on their website, that is correct after looking again. That’s great I’ll be at those mins in months.

How does one update an existing app with Omni? Unless I am missing something I can't find a way. Email HR?

Submitted last week. Haven't heard anything yet, then again I have no idea what the turn around time for applications is. Looks like the window is closed now though. Any idea what level of qualifications is getting interviews now a days?

huh, it does seem closed but they also just updated their APC page with a status of 'hiring' and I received notice of participating in a hiring event.

So most lines are 16-17 days right? Then you are guaranteed 13-14 off each month?

Lines vary between 14-16 (+1 ovrd). There's split and combined lines.

Basically unless you bid split lines. You're still on the hook for 16 days with the 17th day at their discretion. This month I sat at home day 1 on scal and looks like I'm headed home a day or two early on this sequence that rolls into next month. For May that would have been 16 days straight at home, except that I did pick up 2 days which had them use the override day as a result, giving me 3 days over guarantee with the extra 300 and 400 per day on the volunteer days. In the end my month will be 13 days home with about 80 credit plus $700 with about 48 hours of block flying. Hope that example sheds some light on schedules and how it can be worked for pay.

Hello

Is Omni a happy place to work / atmosphere?
Is the training department low key?
How much $$$ can you expect to make the first year?
So, Captain upgrade stands at 3 years approx?
