1, Look on the website for all the route info, NB Carribean is 747 only at the mo.
2, Average about 4 most from 3 to 5 days although Sydney is 9
3, Min 10 days off, usually about 14-16 not counting days when you leave late or arrive early
4, Basic £42k, plus £16.66 per block hour -contracted to 750p.a. so thats 12.5k plus subsistance allowance down route-usually paid in local currency cash-about £5k p.a.
5, Bids in by 18th of the month, roster out by 15th of the following month (often late), can bid for 2 trips, one trip and 3 days off or 6 days off. Rotating bid system so FNGs have a good chance every 3rd month.
6, Money purchase, Company will put in 15% if you put in >6%, less if <6%.
7, LHR for all A340 guys-what 330s?
8, I like it- and people seldom leave!!
