    Emirates Hiring?

    Got called for an interview a while back; they want you to pay your own way to DXB. I think a lot of folks are bailing out of there.

    Atlas/Polar

    Steam what?!? I don't have any idea what you're talking about. Follow the magenta line. For those of you asking about Atlas schedules do a search in this forum, I posted an explanation not too long ago.

    Sure it is (TIC) Newhires are based out of STN, but there are almost no 400 flights out of there. You will be patterned to commercial from STN to the origination point of your trip AMS, FRA, DXB, LUX, etc. The only time you may operate out of STN is if they need to cover a 200 trip because...

    Check the cargo forum, there are several threads on this issue.

    As far as pay for work on involuntary off days goes, you get paid at your daily rate, plus any block hours, then there are some over-rides depending on how many days they take 125%, 150%, etc. Personally, I'd rather have the off day. On the STN issue, I'll try to be specific about that because...

    Atlas/Polar

    That's completely untrue. You may sit for 3 days somewhere but they don't count toward your off days. However, having your off days taken away can and WILL happen. The company can take up to 4, and they excercise that right frequently. 13 days off turns in to 9, take away another day on each...

    You get gateway basing for any base OTHER than STN. If you get hired on the Atlas side and get based in STN you are on your own getting back and forth.

    Anyone of ya'll use Vonage?

    I got it when I started doing int'l long haul and it's great, it's hard to beat 3 cents a minute calling Hong Kong form your home phone. I know a lot of people who use skype and like it alot also.

    Question for UPSers

    He did, but his supervisor wasn't sure about how to do it either.

    Question for UPSers

    Quick question about recommendations: I have a driver willing to submit a recommendation for me but he doesn't know how to go about it, can someone clue me in so I can pass it along? Appreciate any info.

    Any Polar Hiring/Class News?

    The new base bid just out shows 49 new hire pilot positions. Captain upgrades begin this week with new hire classes starting next month. If you really want to get on, an internal LOR will go a lot farther than meeting time requirements. There was no one in my new hire class who didn't have an...

    Atlas pilots: Question about jumpseating to work?

    You can jumpseat on domestic carriers but there must be a seat available in the cokpit and one in back. There is no riding up front even with the CASS system, it is domestic only. Jumpseating is not allowed on any non-US carrier that I'm aware of. It's a challengeing commute and one that is...

    oral part of atlas interview

    I thought it was probably the most laid back interview I've ever had, for sure. I think the sim is most likely the major hurdle.

    oral part of atlas interview

    I got 0 technical questions. It was all HR type stuff...where are you coming from, tell us about your experiences, why do you want to come here. Do you know you will be Stansted based? How does your family feel about you being based in Stansted. Are you sure you realize you will be Stansted...
