Hey guys,
So I’m considering applying to Cape Air as a Captain. I have a couple of questions that hopefully you guys can help me out answering.
1. Cape Air is advertising 80k as first year average with OT, how much flying you actually have to be doing to hit that number?
2. Is there a possibility to commute ? And how much are you leaving on the table of those possible 80k by commuting?
3. How do you apply to the advance gateway program and how long does it usually take to flow to Jet Blue?

The JetBlue program is reserved for graduates of certain accredited aviation colleges/part 141 training programs. The spirit program is open to all Cape captains. 80k is doable, but how much you wanted to commute home would limit that. Probably 25 of that 80 is picking up extra and incentive days etc. where would you be trying to commute from? It would be a weekly commute to an in base crash pad - and fly commuting on a duty day isn’t generally possible. A 4 on 4 off schedule is typical.
