Just on the 950 hour rule for the EEC....does that mean blox to blox or is it FDP as measured from sign on to sign off as Qantas do it??

I would have thought that in Australia we currently do significantly less than that as a long Haul flight attendant if you calculate is as a blox exercise on a 186 hour per bid period average? That is of course taking a six week holiday per annum reduction in hours inito the equation.

Certainly bodes badly for LHR where the leave is not as high and they are expected to work up to 240 hours like the kiwi's before getting extra pay.

I will investigate the veracity of this and watch it closely
