I would like to know if your family's members can also jumpseat on Cargojet's airplanes to travel or it's only for employees? Also about commuting, is it possible to have blocks of days off so you can come back home or it's only 2,3 days off in a row.
Per diems is not salary. Just in case someone thought that’s why I was asking. Just seemed like 20k in per diems was a hefty amount.
Lots of cargojet Guys hired at sky regional in the last 12 months. They seem to not have liked it so much. Sounds like the flying gig could have been great if it weren’t for the company politics and old boys club mentality that seemingly exists.
Can you touch on that a bit? What are some of the more negative aspects of Cargojet?

Yes those complaints were from 727 Second Officers or First Officers. I don't think there are any 767/757 First Officer's that came to Sky Regional, you're right. Thanks for clarifying that. Sounds not too bad on the 767/757 side of things.
MAL has starting salary on the B757 at 65k plus a 12k a year retention bonus. Contract is up for renegotiation in 2020. The salary will be at least 77k to start.
Upgrades are 4-5 year at this point I reckon. The staff is senior and there is no movement at the top to leave. All the upgrades are from unprecedented growth.
Per diems are $3.50 an hour away from base. I averaged 700-950 a month. Months are 85 hours. Usually sched is less than 85 a month. overtime if you go over. 1/4 for hotel time.
Cargo jet has some nice perks like flying over seas and the 767, which is actually also a nasty weakness.
Morningstar pays more with a better sched on B757 while CJ pays less with a worse sched on a WIDEBODY 767........... 4% rrsp and 3 weeks vac day 1 to boot.
I'm a MAL fanboy obviously. So take it with a grain of salt, but facts are facts.

I thought the 12k bonus was only for the Caravan crew.

Hi i was just wondering if anyone knows what are the current minimums requirements (Hours, do i need multi engine hours,etc.) for a f/o job at Cargo Jet. Thanks
Can anyone provide any current info on Cargo Jet? I am interested in applying in the near future. Did they improve their schedules/pay? Are they hiring bare minimums? Their job ad seems pretty vague. Is there a training bond for the 767 type rating? 1500 TT seems quite low so I’m guessing most applicants are NTR.
Another +1 for Morningstar. I just finished my line indoc on the 757. They have treated me very well. So far the schedule is really good. I work 9 days in December. 7 nights away from home. Off Christmas and Boxing Day.
