Great! Like drinking through a fire-hose, a very fun learning experience for sure. Lots of cool people here, to boot...

Eh, depends. 70-100 is pretty average, some do more if their base isn’t full and they are able to pick up extra days.

The ones doing 120/month are picking up extra shifts. Not everyone is able to do that, especially in the outstations.

Captains require a full ATP at 1500TT. That is when your contract starts.
So is there a pay upgrade at 1200, or does that happen at 1500/CA as well?

Thanks again

Thanks, sounds like they are doing a lot of flying! Do you know what their schedules look like? And do the pilots have CASS?

Default Flight benefits

Can someone who already works at Cape Air answer for me? My husband got the offer letter. What are the flight benefits for the pilot’s spouse with Cape Air’s partnered airlines?

I know he will get 6 round trip buddy passes for friends and family on Cape Air flights. But what about other Airlines?

About how many flight hours would you say accrue during the training?

Spouse and children get access to zed fares on a very long list of airlines. A couple include parents too. JetBlue at 3 mos of employment the rest at 6. And pilot had jumpseat privileges.
