I would absolutely apply. I've never seen it posted that they want turbine PIC specifically

Excellent. Thanks! I was going to apply regardless while the window is open but glad to hear I at least have a chance!

If you meet these requirements go ahead and apply. Omni needs pilots and if you're qualified you're qualified.

So, a little off topic and a little less serious than most posts, but what are the good layovers at Omni and what aren’t? I assume things are starting to open up in other countries

I asked not too long ago and it sounds like only Japan is currently closed to leaving the base.

Can you opt to be flown somewhere other than your designated home base on go home day as long as it’s on the list? My family often meets me places when it looks like I can’t get home (much less of a problem I’m sure at Omni) and I see Omni pilots and family get United benefits. Basic lowest priority standby I’m sure?

Yes, can you tell us more about the layovers?

Yes. You actually can be flown anywhere whether it's on the "list" or not. As long as the ticket is the same price or less than your "go home" ticket. And they prob won't buy you a hotel if it's at a later time or something like that. You can request alternate travel to or from work. Again, as along as it doesn't cost more.

I dig it! Not to mention actually having more than a day or two to go somewhere with them. Nice little perk to add to the other benefits over regional life. My app is in. Fingers crossed.

Pilots are in contract negotiations with the company, so as long as it is contractually possible the company should work with you on alternate travel requests, but understand they don’t have too if they are too busy with other things.
