Atlas Air Hiring
![Default](https://www.airlinepilotforums.com/images/icons/icon1.gif)
A deep dive into that “in a year from now” means there could be an amazing amount of change for the good or bad to our operations, compensation, schedules, and so forth aside from hiring madness perhaps. Just crazy to think that the job you applied for might be quite a bit different from the job you get which might be bad but could be also awesome. Perspective is everything and to each their own so “Welcome aboard” to the new folks and may it be better than you thought. If not, plenty of options, best hiring opportunities in history and your time here is a resume builder. Timing IS everything.

Thinking about coming over, as I’m single and the wide body lifestyle interests me. I spend most of my days off at my regional traveling to Europe anyway. Just curious about soft time; what people are actually making with pick ups and such, or if it’s hard to get above guarantee. Apologies if it’s been discussed elsewhere, couldn’t find it but would be happy to be pointed to the thread!

I wouldn't count on more than 68-75/hrs a month on the 737 or 767, though, and you'll have some 64 hr months. There's a fair amount of opportunity for open time on the 767 (currently) if you live in CVG or ONT. Maybe you can make that work being single. Can't speak to open time on the other fleets as I don't get the notifications.

From my own experience you can do anywhere from min garantee 64hrs to 180+ credit hours.
I flew 800+ block in my first year.
You shouldn’t budget on it but 900-1000 credit hours a year is certainly doable.

Covid/Hazard/Art.33 pay still only applies to a handful of destinations. Those glory days are mostly over.

180 credit in a month? Can I ask how one would go about that?

appreciate the info. How about CJO to class date?
Right now if based in ANC, 180-200 hours a month is easy if you pick up aggressively, this will change when China opens up, so perhaps at some point next year. Right now classes and training are so backed up it'll be 8 months from applying to hitting the line, so who knows what the world looks like then.
