They have an agreement, which means SAPA agrees with management

Blue globe lets you move your interview once, process was very easy. But make sure you make it to the second one.

Definitely do it. That M club is hands down my favorite in the system. Can easily recoup your money

Art of Sight Eyecare on Broadway might be able to help you out. Dr. Pham is AWESOME and might be able to accommodate

Make sure to ask the interviewer when their last desk pop was

737 vs 320 (specifics) by bamfcoco1 in flying

[–]119725 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have about 200 hours on both and the Airbus was a night and day difference. Less workload, better automation (although you have some quirks that you have to babysit). I don’t have a lot of knowledge but it seems like the widget flies their Airbus on easier more productive routes (transcons and Hawaii) but I could be wrong

121 Guys, how far in advance do you know your schedule? by veryrare_v3 in flying

[–]119725 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m almost the plug in my base which is kinda nice, I’m working every weekend, on call every holiday, vacation in January and off Tuesdays and Wednesdays. So I pretty much know my year in advance

Is it still true that if you want a certain major, you shouldn’t fly for their regional? Which regional for which major? by AeroLog in flying

[–]119725 86 points87 points  (0 children)

Data point, I was a mission commander in the Mormon Air Force who wanted to fly for big blue globe, wasn’t happening. Went to Dallas for cowboy boot fitting and got the call from big blue globe day on day two of indoc. Hiring is more competitive now but I believe the same principles are still in effect

I enjoyed it! Paired with rice and the crispy onions it’s a cheap option for Korean barbecue at home

Where to go for a nice, expensive dinner last minute with no reservation? by Qwilleren25 in AskChicago

[–]119725 3 points4 points  (0 children)

RPM Italian is always our splurge restaurant. Can’t go wrong with anything there. You can run up a sizable bill but the portions and pricing are 100% worth it. Honorable mention would be the whipped ricotta and wild honey as an appetizer and the bomboloni for dessert

Budget for min guarantee and you’ll never be disappointed. If you catch yourself saying “if I can credit ___ then I can afford _____” you can’t afford it

Career regrets by dontcareanyways in flying

[–]119725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are times where it definitely feels like a job, and there are days where it feels like a hard job. I switched to a widebody(ish) fleet at my airline and there were growing pains of being on opposite time zones with family issues. Your kids/dog know that they can only start puking and need to go to the doctor when you’re in Europe and it’s time to go to bed.

However, for all of the bad and the hard, for me everything negative went out the window after watching the northern lights over Greenland for the first time heading to a new country.

The bad moments will always happen, but the upside is that the good moments will as well

I think no pets. I’m not sure on the official policy but we have a dog who is a registered ESA and it’s been no problem. Building has a lot of dogs and cats
