PHL FO Schedule
Greetings,
Might be ending up as a Junior FO at the PHL base for the airline. Can anyone share a few screenshots of their schedule so I can get an idea of what they look like? I am not sure that goes against company pollicy or what no so I will close the thread if so. However, just trying to get an idea for what my 1st year off training will look like. I live lukily 1 hour a 52 mins from the company entrence at PHL. |

Thank you for the intel. Does that mean 4 nights away or 3 nights away when you say "4 days on"? Looking forward to it either way. I don't mind grinding it out.

This is a timely thread as I have a CJO and will start class in May. I'm 30 minutes drive from PHL, so the reserve period doesn't bother me since I can easily get there as long as I'm close to home on the on-call days. It sounds like a 4 day trip is 3 nights away from home for someone living in base. I've seen the route map and would be curious if any of legs during someon'es a 4 day trip would actually wind up back in base overnight, or would one expect to be overnighting in outstations? Or totally random? There would obviously be a mix of equipment overnighting in outstations for the early morning feeders into the hubs, along with morning flights from the hubs to the outstations.
Over on ATP, some pilots share their scheudle in a format like below. Obviously everyone's mileage varies, but it's an interesting view of a month in the life be it a lineholder or reseve. 1 - AAA-BBB-CCC (overnight) 2 - CCC-DDD-AAA 3 - AAA-EEE-FFF (overnight) 4 - FFF-GGG-AAA 5 - off 6- off .... |
Thank you for this. I live down here in DE. I am planning on sailing my sailboat up to PHL to use as a "Crashpad" during my reserve peroid... Lot's of cheap marinas all near the airport. Anyone have a space heater I can borrow HA...

One more ? You say we need to be there by 0700. What time does one come OFF reserve generally and get the green light to go home for the night?

for guys asking about schedules: none of our schedules plan to be back in base for overnights. All overnights are in outstations. PHL and CLT generally come back to base for turns throughout the trip though, MDT you’re just out in the system for four whole days. |

I live lukily 1 hour a 52 mins from the company entrence at PHL. Expect almost all lines to be 4 days on (3 nights away), 3 days off. For 12-13 days off per month. Some lines will have a 3-day, followed by a 2-day. You won't see more than 14 days off basically ever. Seniority only lets you pick where the work days fall on your calendar. Very little, if any, "sweet schedule for the senior people" here. |
