Tons of options in today's aviation industry. Several guys heading to the regionals now. I've heard of people heading out west to Surf Air.
I get this question a lot. If your end goal is to go to a major airline, Boutique isn't your best bet to "skip" the regionals. Maybe that'll change in the future but who knows. Boutique definitely is an awesome way to get your foot in the door and open up several new opportunities down the road, though.

It's Complicated....
I live in Atlanta and am making the rotary to fixed-wing transition. CFII-Helo with over 1800TT, 1200XC, 700 night, 200 IFR, all-turbine time, ect.
Does anyone know how much FW time I'll need to get on with Boutique as an FO once I've gotten the SEL Commercial Instrument?
Thanks
Keith

Seems like the ideal gig for me.

As for ATL goes, might be little to no movement until some new routes open up. I don't think any of those FOs are heading anywhere anytime soon.

Could be a day trip, out and back being home at the end of the day. Or an overnight, 3-6 legs and duty off out of base. Duty on in the morning and end up back in base the next day. Or a continuous duty overnight, where you start later in the day and fly a few legs, get a handful of hours sleep at a crew house or hotel on duty. Then return to base the next morning.
