Yes, can you tell us more about the layovers?

My family often meets me places when it looks like I can’t get home (much less of a problem I’m sure at Omni) and I see Omni pilots and family get United benefits. Basic lowest priority standby I’m sure?


Yes. You actually can be flown anywhere whether it's on the "list" or not. As long as the ticket is the same price or less than your "go home" ticket. And they prob won't buy you a hotel if it's at a later time or something like that. You can request alternate travel to or from work. Again, as along as it doesn't cost more.

I dig it! Not to mention actually having more than a day or two to go somewhere with them. Nice little perk to add to the other benefits over regional life. My app is in. Fingers crossed.

Pilots are in contract negotiations with the company, so as long as it is contractually possible the company should work with you on alternate travel requests, but understand they don’t have too if they are too busy with other things.

Not a pilot, but the times I’ve been TDY to Guam I’ve always say Omni pilots staying at the Hilton with me. Not sure how long the layovers are, but Guam is a great place with some great food aNF great diving spots if you’re there long enough for that.

should add seams like a gotcha on some of the longer flights to deadhead in their economy seats.

I hear PQI is a nice layover outside of the snowy season

They will call and give you the option if both classes are running in the same month, if not then its whatever class they offer. Both fleets are great and cant go wrong. The 767 is probably the more favorable fleet due to the variety of its mission. It does and goes everywhere.
congrats to all those coming in august hope to see ya at the training center
