Air Uk
From what I understand the boys and girls in Scandiland do get home quite often but clearly it can get difficult with winter weather and the lack of direct flights to certain UK bases - you may get used to Schipol !
There are the odd one or two pilots who commute from the Low Countries and the Channel Islands but from what I have been told, its not easy and quite wearing. Not sure if the Company would be very enthusiastic to such a proposal from a new recruit.
The 767 is doing Far East trips from Scandi in the winter.
The 757 is slowly dying on the vine so I would not make too many assumptions about anything other than the 73 and 78.
Staff Travel when I left was not easy due to understaffing.
Working environment is very friendly despite one or two dinosaurs in the LHS who will bore you to death about the size of their FS pension pots.
Please accept a health warning on these comments as I am out of the loop but still in contact with some on the coalface.
