I'm not in commercial aviation but hope to be after converting to EASA. As someone who has worked for a few years in private executive jets and some organ transport in my 6 years flying professionally I have never spent a New year's at home and most Nationals holidays were away as well.
I'm not saying commercial is like this but a lot of people aren't ready for the compromises you make in your work/life balance.
I actually studied my PPL with a guy that asked the instructor if theres an airline that would respect getting Saturdays off because he was a seventh day Adventist haha
