I spoke to a Sincargo Captain in EWR last week. He had flown from Anchorage to Chicago, had minimum rest and then paxed to EWR to wait 4hours to catch the non-stop EWR-SIN fight back to Singapore. Thats about another 18 hours flight time! On top of all that he told me that they don't get flight pay for positioning unlike mainline who get half rates. Sounded like a pretty sh...y deal to me. In addition he mentioned that SIA are holding all new contracts until the new collective agreement has been signed because they are slashing most of the allowances. Be warned I say.
