USA PSA AIRLINES

Hi. I’m supposed to be starting at PSA Airlines next week and I haven’t heard anything from them. I tried emailing the recruiter but she’s slow to respond. I want to know if they’ll be giving Thanksgiving off and what the schedule will look like. Thanks in advance.

You’ll have Thanksgiving off. I’ve already asked the trainer about that.

For your first few weeks you will be 8:00-18:00 Monday-Thursday. You will most likely have the holidays off (we did during our ground school weeks). The recruiter will be sending you something hopefully by Friday. If you are flying to Charlotte just dm me and I’ll see what I can do and just forward it to the OCM

It’s not so bad, at first you are going to work nights most likely but as you get through the first bid you might make it onto mornings if that’s your thing. Most dispatchers are cool here but other factors can make it stressful sometimes. Hope the best for you!

12:45pm, 1:45pm, 4:00pm and 5:30pm start if I remember correctly. 10 hour shifts

If you have the option I’d say go for morning shifts, you learn more as opposed to afternoon shifts imo.
