This plan is a flexible, tax-advantaged 529 college savings plan managed by Alliance Capital. This plan allows you to save through payroll deductions on an after-tax basis for college expenses.

Other Stuff:

No involuntary junior manning

Open time can be picked up at JM pay (150%) as long as the trip starts in the next 10 days. Crew support has the option to deny your request to pick up the open time, but they have to assign it to a reserve right away. If you pick up open time outside of the 10 day window it is straight pay.

Schedules are constructed using a preferential bidding system (PBS). Some like it, some don't. The trick is learning how to use it properly. I screwed up for January and now I only have 11 days off. Boo. Personally, I like it better than the hard lines because it's easier to get a couple specific days off without having to limit your options severely. PBS will build a schedule with no more than 20 duty days in a month, i.e. (10-11 days guaranteed off depending on whether it's a 30 or 31 day bid period).

Automated trip trades and picking up of dropped trips of other crew members and open time via company web site.

Excellent company web site. I can't even begin to tell you how much better I like it compared to SABRE (at American Eagle). Very easy to use. And we can keep an e-mail longer than one day! haha (Eagle guys know what I'm talking about)
. . . and the best part most of all a very good working relationship with our management and NO MANDATORY ALPA DUES!

JUST SAY NO, IT IS ALPO!!! (I had to say this at the end just for Nevets )

Anything else you would like to know?
How often do you exceed the 75hr/guarantee?
What is a typical sked for a new hire FO?
For 1st yr pay, gross calculates to $20,700 at min, is that accurate?
For new hire who commutes to west coast, SAN, how many days/mo could I realistically expect to make it back home?

Any further detailed info would be appreciated, trying to make a decision on this, thanks.
