... are there any travel benefits at NJA (Jumpseat with any airlines, Discount Travel) that might make something like this possible for some.

Hey thanks for the info. I've been wondering that for a while. How many hours do you guys actually fly a month usually or a year if its hard to say in a month. Also any details on training ....length, location, etc..

I'd like some advise from NJA Capt
I'm about to upgrade at Express and go from 32.80 an hour to 62 and finally get PIC time. CAL plans on taking 69 aircraft, but thats going to take atleast 9 months before they can to anything, if they to anything at all, b/c we have rights to the aircraft first. So it get ugly or it could be for the best, no one has a crystal ball. My question and advise to you is, Do I ride Continental Express out and get the PIC time or jump ship to Netjets, where I hear nothing but good things.

As one in your shoes also, just ask yourself where do you want to be in 10 years. If you want to follow the airline route, stay at CoEx. If your ready for something different, and in many ways better in my opinion, jump ship. There's an interesting thread under fractionals on flightinfo.com about going 121 to NJA. I would say go read that and see how NetJets treats their employees. I already knew where I wanted to go and after reading some of that there's absolutley no doubt in my mind.
I'm not so patiently waiting for an email invite to interview right now. I would suggest at least getting your resume to them so that the process can get started. You can make up your mind later.

Question about the schedule. When you show up at your domicile to fly, will it be the last time you're at your domicile until the end of your trip? Do you hop around the country for 7 days and come back to the domicile on the last day or do you often do out and backs in that 7 days?
