Hello, I have just started with a company(fedex) that from what I understand I can fly nonrev thru. I have never flown stand by so I can use some help on few things.

I live in da U.P. of Michigan and I could fly out of ESC or MQT,I think they fly to Chicago and Detroit. Another Option I can drive to Green Bay WI or Milwaukee WI.

My Mother is born and raised in Germany so half my family is over there. She has been home I would think less then 10 times in the last 30 some years.

My wife and I would like to take her home using nonrev middle of May 2015...15 months from now.

What would be our best bet for 3 seats to Germany? Our goal is Ritterhude Gemany but is fine if we have to train it from Amsterdam or Frankfurt. I would like to be able to spend few days in Amsterdam on the return trip also.

I hope to be able to fly stand by a couple times before then, one of them being Jamaica. I will be making a post with for the most part the same questions but flying to Montego Bay and Kingston Jamaica. If you have any advice for there also please let me know.

Thanks
