I haven’t heard anything about resuming flights out of JAX. But that may change as more ATRs come online.

Pay

Can anyone share the average monthly take home pay for, lets say a 2nd year FO? Im seeing $35 an hour with a 75 hour guarantee. That's $2625/mo. But that's not a livable wage, ...right? I mean, thats a third of my military enlisted pay, So am I missing some other benefits, or are all the pilots extra poor.

I get fitted every other year for masks in the military, both positive pressure and Chemical / Biological. Its one of those 15 minute seal tests, where you have to read out of a book while moving your head in multiple uncomfortable positions. The machine says I pass every time.

I know other countries airlines allow beards, and I know Hawaiian allows them, but was unsure about Silver, or any others.

Any info would be appreciated (except your personal opinion on why you don't like beards)

No beards allowed

I'm an offline pilot trying to rely on a jumpseat from MHH to FLL on 6/21.

Will I have any problems getting a seat in the back? I realize I won't be able to actually ride in the jumpseat because its international.

Load check?

I really appreciate the help.
