Was able to get information from an industry source that Atlas will be attending OBAP in Washington, DC in August... anybody know the specifics of attending the OBAP conference? I've never attended one of these before, primarily due to where I lived/worked. Any specific demeanor / attire rules or other tips someone could send my direction specifically in regards to Atlas?
Finally, are the schedules still commutable (10 day off blocks)? Thanks. |

You owe the company 17 days a month. So you get 13 or 14 days off. In a one month bid the 17 days normally are together. So you could work the 1st to the 17th and have the rest of the month off. Or it could be the 3rd to the 19th. So how much time off you get really depends on last month's bid. If you're HSV based most of the trips get in too late the last day to get out so you're going home on day 18. If you're JFK and actually have to go to JFK many trips start at 2z so you'll go up there on day 0.
If you get a "60 day line" which is really a 2 month bid you'll work up to 34 days. Normally those days are broken into 3 parts. Per the contract there has to be 5 days off between "patterns" of work days. How many days you spend at home depends on where you start and stop flying. Some bases, CVG, IAH, MIA and HSV, are like real airline bases with most their flights starting and ending in base. JFK and PAE have more lines that start or end with a DH which means the company will DH you from your gateway on day one. |
Hello I am going to apply to Atlas air and i have a few questions before I do so...not that it will change my mind about applying! :)
-How senior is PAE? -Is a new hire going to 767 or 747 -What is it like commuting for this job? -Most senior and most junior base. -Likely hood of getting JFK as a base. Thank you! |

A little hint, go back one page. :rolleyes: And I'll go ahead and say it for everyone, go back to page 1 and read the whole thread. All the questions will be answered over and over and over and over again. :D |
Before anyone gets spun up about being asked politely to go to page 1, consider it a Rite of Passage. There are times for the Easy Button and their are times to follow decorum.
This thread is 95% useful information. 2% perhaps goes off topic with 2% getting back on track and 1% off the grid and entertaining. It is a masterpiece and each post shares a nice view of the Giant World and sometimes the poster. There are some great quick view summaries that provide a Table of Contents for those with unique time constraints. However, for most of us, we have the time. Investing your time in this thread may show some your tenacity. This thread is a nice intelligence brief, it is very easy to throw out the garbage and sift through actionable stuff. The folks who invest have a high degree of success. This is a good group I have been stalking since 2010 since I jumpseated from NRT. Best to all and thank you to many for helping me with my journey in and out of the flight deck. V |
