That’s exactly the dilemma I’ve got.
I’ve been at the same outfit well over a decade now and I’m ready for a change. Every time I’ve looked at long haul at BA, Virgin or Emirates, the rosters have always put me off. I know seniority plays a big part, but going away on trips and then only having 1 to 4 days at home between duties, not even factoring in the commute, just doesn’t appeal.
What’s drawing me towards DHL is that, from what I can see, the days off tend to come in much bigger blocks. That’s the bit that interests me, along with finally scratching the long haul itch.
