Virgin America Lifestyle

Don't worry about lifestyle, their crappy pay will take care of that. But you will be an AIRBUS pilot...

I care less about the airbus I don't have an itch to fly the bus, I have been flying Boeing the last few years. Right now I am living and working in the middle east, would this be better than playing in the sandbox?

Certainly better than flying to Kabul... Plus, that Dubai weather in the summer (mix of sun and extreme humidity) certainly can't compare to 65F in SFO.

Yes, but it is fairly senior right now, should start growing as we add cities this year.

any chance the jfk base will grow? or how long would it take a new hire to get jfk?

 

[cmrflyer]

dont think the kennedy base will grow, and it is pretty senior, a lot of those guys will be upgrading and that will give the junior guys a shot at getting it.

JFK doesn't seem likely to grow, but the upgrades result in a decent turnover for the FO's The junior JFK fo is approx 86 out of 180-ish FO's

There is... 10 crews.

Junior FO in LAX is in the bottom 10%
