You're right, catering has improved a bit Having the PB&J's out of ANC has been nice and ORD doesn't serve prison food anymore. SYD has been awful. Had some lamb out of there a few weeks ago, and ended up destroying the hotel toilet in ICN. I'll agree though, that Chinese catering was the worst. I wish Michael in Hahn wouldn't freeze his catering solid though.

Many moons ago Atlas was entertaining/processing the idea of family travel, but that never happened so no family travel whatsoever. Have seen other airline employees pre-COVID, but haven’t seen any since the start of this debacle. Unsure if anything has lifted regarding other airline folks riding along, perhaps it has? Someone else can chime in.
Delta, AA, Southwest, Lufthansa, Etihad, plus some other smaller airlines.
Not sure if I missed one or two...
Delta is expensive. Lufthansa is the best for overseas.

life: Week on week off (more or less) or 17 days straight,, depending on your preference. First year expect mostly domestic Amazon and DHL. After that you can do what you like across international cargo and pax ops.
Positive space to work and hotel provided.
Bad coffee compared to other planes. Lots of chances to explore.

Yeah. It's sort of a mixed blessing. You get in at least 10hrs prior. That usually means losing a day on the front end of your trip. The upshot: no crash pads or stressing the jump seat into work.
