Blind lines are generally ok. I get a mix of blind and trip lines and am very near the bottom. Occasionally a blind line will be almost all there and backs, but generally there is a mix which is the great advantage of the fleet. Next month I will be entirely longhaul which sometimes happens too.

There is nothing wrong with the destinations on the fleet although of couse that is up to each individuals preference. There is a fair amount of African work, which I quite like and there is more east coast stuff for the summer schedule which is likely to stay due to that larger number of longhaul hulls in the fleet. As long as that doesn't become the mainstay of the fleet then all will be well, otherwise there will be a few too many nights out of bed.

The 75 does a fair amount of domestic and a few european routes. Generally all very good.

Blind lines will have a fair amount of weekend work, but I do think it is the best fleet in the airline due to the mix and having 2 aircraft to fly.
