Does the New Hire $4K per month include the period between completion of indoc and sim commencement?
Assuming EFBs are utilized, are tablets issued with Operations/Acft manuals etc...during indoc?
Anything available prior to indoc to review such as Medical/Dental, Insurance, and other company programs?

Yes.
There's no real need. There is a lot of time spent on that stuff during indoc.

Sorry if this has been asked - but expecting to get the 757 in class. I was curious as to:
-Does FedEx have a reserve option for long call reserve-like 12/24hr callout?
-How are guys on the 75 sitting reserve until a secondary line?
-Do a majority of lines have 4 legs a night?
-Does the "50% of flying is day flying" apply to the 75?
Thanks in advance!

Assuming you mean how long until secondary line, not long, but that doesn't mean you won't get R days on a secondary line. But you will in theory have some control over them.
No the majority of 75 trips probably have less than 3 legs in a 24 hour period.
Probably less day flying as a percentage of total flying in the 75 but likely 40%.

Thanks for the info!
I heard that ZED fares are available at FDX, are they for immediate family and parents? Basically on all major carriers and painless to access? Looking at the reality of no more non rev travel benefits

16 years on property...never done a ZED, never done a company discounted ticket for family. Maybe I could have with a bit more initiative, but all those things look like a major PITA.
Make money. Deadhead. Buy a positive space ticket and enjoy the trip with fam. Nothing wrong with trying to save a buck, but at a certain point in your career time becomes more valuable than money.
