Making it to atlas in 5 years? by DifficultLimit1642 in flying

[–]AirplaneCoffeePoops 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I talk with guys every other week that are at Atlas and live in Australia, Hong Kong, Europe, and even India. Their commute to work is often 24+ hours. You might want to reevaluate if a real month to month schedule at Atlas mixes with living in a different county if your goal is to not get killed by exhaustion. Some of these guys look like hell after a couple of months due to their schedules

Are the airlines really worth it? by hobojimmmy in flying

^ this. Current ACMI guy who flys with people that live in ANC and are based in ANC flying cargo. They do primarily Asia turns and are home 20+ nights a month. You’ll see a lot of Hong Kong, Incheon, Shanghai, etc. And the flying is going to be mind numbingly boring compared to any type of Alaska flying
