Is commuting permitted on own time? Say, if one were living in a nearby Asian country, with a few options a day for a flight to SIN, would this be allowed or strictly prohibited?

How are rosters looking for the more junior FO's? Bidding for trips, reserve, etc?

Looks like everything is moving a bit slow in terms of expat pilots. Myself been waiting for a while to be called.

As far as I know it's not a commuting contract. You might get more off days if you are on the B777 or A350 but on the 737 off days are less. You are free to go anywhere during your days off but at your own risk.

However good news is the airline is doing well and they need pilots. The question now is how many they will hire outside singapore.
