Ek: how many hours will you fly in February ?
Please state :
Aircraft
Seat
Ground school,
Leave ( how may days)
Days off ( how many)
Keep in mind that February is a short month so don't be fooled by being schedule for less hours than January.
Please keep the answers short.

Hours for February
Aircraft: B777
Seat: LHS
Days off: 8 (+2 for Stars and stripes visa)
Hours: 93:30 (91 this month)
Overtime threshold is 86 in a 29 day month (ref: OMA)
Keep recovering.

OM-A does not seem to be updated to match the lowered threshold introduced in the latest salary review.

This amount of work does not give enough recovery time!
Not a pointless exercise - Its interesting to know that a lot of others are flying as much and this is true for both A380 and B777!!
Should be a warning to others thinking about joining, this job will affect your health and your quality of life! Don't expect to spend much time at home and when you are you will most probably be knackered!!

Norwegian long haul is coming to town. Why don't you swap your chaffeur driven transport, housing and school allowances with a package of nothing?
Get to fly the 787 and earn less money than anywhere?

Rumours from the bouncy castle is that fleet planning didnt know how short of crew we are and would have delayed accepting new deliveries.. but I guess we can only dream of someone admitting they were wrong let alone doing anything about it

90:25
9 days off

Thanks Lospolitos. You are right I had missed that the overtime limits in the OMA had not been updated since the last pay review. It begs the question considering we are all now being FORCED in to accepting overtime as to why not?!?

I think the thread was asking for EK hours. The clue was in the title. Whilst EK is definitely pushing what is beyond acceptable, 42 hours is hardly reflective of the majority of airlines nowadays.
If you want to make a point and stir the pot, why not include your take home salary too? Then we can all decide how appealing Air Nirvana really is!
