Default Kalitta Information

Hello looking for information about Kalitta and I can’t find a specific thread. Would like to know schedule (how bad are 15 day blocks), quality of hotels y’all stay at, 747 v. 767 flying, domestic v. International flying. I have a family and a potential interview but I would like more information before I commit to interviewing. I’ve heard good, real good, and not so good about being at an ACMI carrier. Thanks all.

I hear there’s split lines.

The hotels might have a bed, but more likely a stripper pole.

There’s a 76?

How's the commute? Domiciles? Crash pads?

None, none, and none, the home base pilots.

I know many folks based in Wan Chai. Schedules are flexible . Pay is even better. Glad everyone doesn't know about it.......

16 day blocks of day on... a few split lines...not popular generally.
US hotels... eh... could use improvement... Asia.. very good.. Europe ...Good
747 is 95 international... 767 (now) is 100% Domestic

IF you cant or dont want to be or family cant take 16 days on... move on... these are NOT the droids you are looking for

Schedule... rarely fly to the places you bid.. on the days on your line... generally most people just bid for certain days off

I heard that we are going to open an Albuquerque, NM base and that S.R is getting promoted back into scheduling. All 767 crews will now operate primarily out of Cuba..

So with the ABQ base, would that be Cuba, NM? It is an up and coming Meca of culture you know.
