Many CGN lines with 7on/7off. Also reserve lines with 2weeks on/2 weeks off.

Nobody is forced. However, by volunteering for CGN/EUR 757, you *might* be able to get into an earlier class. Getting into an earlier class could boost your seniority by 20-30 names depending on your SSN and the SSNs of everyone else in those classes.

Or vice versa. I took CGN as a NH and waited a class behind all the folks I interviewed with.

Unlike pax airlines, where you typically get 1-4 days off in a row mostly, here it is not uncommon to have 1+ weeks off in a row. And if not scheduled, it’s generally not hard to manipulate your schedule to get lots of time off in a row.

Do CGN folks fly both 75/76? Do they get paid blended rates?
