Note from Our Chief Pilot, Brian Roseen

Sun Country is a unique, hybrid airline with a diversified business model with three types of flying: scheduled service, charters, and cargo. This allows us to be flexible and strategic to fly when leisure travelers want to fly most and then increase charter flying in months with lower scheduled service demand. Cargo flying provides year-round consistency in flying to the company.

 

You’ll be a part of a company that is safety and growth focused while providing a variety of flying for pilots. If you’re looking for an airline that will offer growth as a professional along with the experience of joining a tight-knit pilot community where everyone knows each other, Sun Country Airlines is the airline for you.

Benefits

As a pilot with us, you’ll experience diverse flying opportunities across our scheduled service, charter, and cargo operations. We maintain our close-knit, small airline mindset while offering work-life balance, so you can stay connected to what matters most.
