Eastern is generally a good company to work for. The roster is usually 5 on 2 off, so most weekends you have free. Normally you’d work one Sunday in three, with a 4/2 6/2 roster. At the moment they are very short of crews so everyone is working very hard (as Prince said max duty and max hours) and normally you work all the standbys. There are more people coming through, but people are continuing to leave for bigger and better things.
The money isn’t great (but hey money isn’t everything!) and having most weekends off definitely makes up for it. However there is no pension and there is little roster stability, so planning an evening out is very difficult as they can and do change shifts on you last minute. When they sort this out (i.e. when there are more crews) it will be a great airline as the Guys and Gals are all a great bunch to work with.
Hope this helps.
