You must live within a 2 hour drive of your base city. To get this distance go to mapquest.... that's what the company uses. It doesn't matter where your base is, you will be flown to wherever the jet is at the begining of your tour. I'm on the east coast and I've gone out west numerous times to start my week. It just depends on where the empty jet is and where you fit into the puzzle. Don't think that if you're on the west coast that you wont be coming east to start.... because you will come east more than staying west.... every week is different. It also depends on which jet you are on. Most days are 2-4 legs and around 2-6 hours. But I've had 9 hour days (flight time) and have had close to 50 hour weeks... I've also sat around for 2 days and had 12 hour weeks..... it depends. But most of the time you will be gone for 7on/7off. It's a dynamic operation and will never change. If you can't handle not knowing what you're doing tomorrow and then it changes for the worse at 3am then don't come here. Because it will happen sometimes. If you pack for 7-8 days and look forward to some great flying, to some great places (and sometimes not so great places) then you'll love it like I do. It's a fun operation flying awesome equipment and a company that looks out for you. We are generally a happy lot and I want to keep it that way.
