Dating an airline pilot means that you constantly have to adjust your life around their schedule. Pilots who fly reserve lines, meaning they are on-call, live day-to-day unsure of whether or not they will get used. Even though they may be at home, there is always a chance they will get called into work last minute.

How many flights do pilots fly in a day?

Answer: Pilots, like every other profession, experience very different days throughout a career. Long-haul pilots may make only a single flight in a day while regional pilots may take off and land eight or more times. Helicopter pilots may make more than 20 takeoffs and landings in a day.
