      It depends. Low seniority domestic flights don't give you much time off, but international flights do because you spend so much time in enroute flight that the company must give you more time off by law.

    Thanks for the awesome video Juan. Your joy of flight and aviation shows. Most of us can only dream of having the resources to afford the joys of flight like you do. I quit flying at the end of 2008 and the costs I find in aviation today have far surpassed inflation. My son is an airline pilot as well, but he is young and not into adventure flying. I really enjoyed your trip. I pray for rain and snow for all of you this winter. God Bless. Former C-172 and DA-40 driver.
