PER can handle anything.
Ditz, it depends what you find exciting? Infact a lot of PER crew would rather do the flying that they currently do in PER than any of the flying out of the other bases. In PER we do continuous Hong Kong and Singapore trips with NRT bound to return (in MEL you need 20+ years to get a HKG). You won't get a day trip unless you have the seniority, but with even more long haulers coming over, all of which will generally slot if above you guys, that will begin to get hard. There are a lot more people in PER than what there was originally and the PER base is expanding rapidly.
All i can say is, everyone coming over to PER on career progression, make an effort to enjoy it and don't come to work whinging about not getting your transfer back home or how much you hate PER etc, as that's what a lot of the last career progression guys did and to be honest PER crew are over it and won't take it, because most PER crew are there because they want to be, family are in PER etc etc and wouldn't want to fly out of anywhere else. We understand you guys are leaving family and friends etc and it's hard leaving home, but at the end of the day, you all accepted a position based in PER, simple.
Get excited. PER is a great base to fly out of with great crew, can be very different flying to what you're used to, relaxed. You'll find compared to the other bases, PER can be very procedural and some of the CSM's can be very anal something of which other people who have transferred have found it hard to adjust to.
It always good to see new people and i can assure you, you'll be welcomed with open arms.
See you soon!
