 New ATL girl!
Hi all,
I've been reading posts for a few days and decided I'd introduce myself. I'm 26, living in Atlanta, and writing this as my fiance is off on a 2 day trip. He gets home tonight. He's flying with an instructor, because he just got upgraded to captain. He's pretty excited, but i know his schedule is about to go from 2-3 day trips with high seniority to the bottom of the line and on reserve. I've gotten used to his schedule, as much as I can, but it's still hard some of the time. He is very good about calling me a lot. And when he's home, he is home. I would love some advice from anyone regarding newlywed life with a pilot. I know it's going to be very hard when we move in together and then he's going to leave on those first few trips. I also think about a few years down the line when he wants to switch from a regional to a mainline and we will have to decided whether he should commute or we move. It's stressful to think about, and that's still a few years away!
Anyway, I'm glad I found this website. I think it'll help!
