If you don’t want Anchorage, ask for the 76

737: CVG is the only base
747: ANC
767: newhires get CVG but for now can bid ONT while still in training
777: CVG I believe

Hey can you tell me your perspective of what exactly is the pathway program? I just got an interview with Atlas, and I was looking on the job site. I have about 1700 hours. Thanks, good luck!

Oh, and the 737 only has a CVG base. I've heard different things about what planes they're hiring on, but it sounds like they're hiring for all of them. But I've also heard that the 737 is overstaffed, so not sure why they would be staffing it more haha.

the hiring on the 737 is purely for attrition right now. It is not abnormal to go to training for 75 days, then struggle to get your 100 hours inside 150 days and then you will just sit reserve. If I were you I would go to a regional to get 121 time, you will get hours a lot faster and upgrade to get your PIC time. There are guys here that will spend more than 3 years on the 737 to get 1000 hours to upgrade.

I think I got a lot of info on this thread - thank you all!

One question - if one was to be assigned 747, knowing ANC is the most junior base, how fast can one expect MIA or something closer to Florida? I don't mind getting to/from ANC and all but imputed taxes on those flights would probably kill the paycheck.

MIA is a senior base, so expect to wait a while. That being said, they haven't imputed anyone in a couple of years. I've heard rumors that the way they were doing it was incorrect and a pilot with a tax lawyer wife got them to change it (rumor only).

LAX should be about a year then CVG will be about 1.3 years. After that you will be waiting for awhile for MIA.

ORD/CVG/JFK are all one leg commutes, easy.
There’s no real standard as to how long you’ll be in ANC or LAX. Anywhere between 6-12 months but you could get lucky.
I’ve had three out of my class get MIA after only 12 months.
