is the weekly work pattern based on a fixed roster, random or based on bidding?
Fixed roster after you're released, 8 days Off minimum per month.
And what's the average amount of consecutive days off you get? (to make commuting feasible).
in a busy roster maybe 2, otherwise you can have up to 5 days requested off, but not yet officially signed by Ram...so up to them.
If you end up doing 80 hours already, they will give you more days off per month, as they don't like to let you fly more and get more money, exception in summer june to mid September.
Does the roster allow you to commute weekly back to Europe?
Not really.
last month i had something like 14 days off, two block of 5 just an exception as I was already reach 80 hour earlier...this month 8 days total, block of 2 and not able to come back EU, as I will be tired to use the 2 days off, to travel out and back.
hope this helps.
