A few hours late? I agree with what most of you say in terms of pay and benefits. However I am on the 747 and you are clearly not. I’m thrilled when I make it home on the same day. The roster changes down route are most certainly relevant as it becomes difficult to plan sleep and the fatigue is real. Again you clearly have never done it or you wouldn’t be spouting off like a moron.
Other than that it’s hard to argue. With a couple kids in school, a mortgage and a decent salary there are precisely zero higher paying airline jobs on the planet.
Even on the **** fleet I average 11 Gs a month. So call it max 180 days off. However at least 50% of those are being legitimately used for recovery and of little use as a day “off”. So while I still consider the money out for work in decent, you and I are clearly having different CX experiences. I hope to have your experience one day, sounds lovely.
