Whats the typical amount of days of a month i could expect and are they sprinkled throughout the month or can you get it in blocks?
The minimum days off is either 8 or 9 per month, can't remember exactly but that's close enough. As a line pilot you'll get pretty much that in the summer and more than that in the winter to give you your contracted days off per year. The spread of the days off is mixed, usually 2 or 3 consecutive days off in the summer, maybe more occasionally in the winter. You can pre-book 3 request days off a month unless you work a flexible roster with a fixed pattern.
