I'm not sure but I heard a rumour that a middle eastern airline is trying that with the pilots.So if your trip has a day off in Singapore that counts towards your days off per roster.
That'd be beaut wouldn't it.
If Aus J* int crew hours are up to 152 per roster then maybe the thai crew for J* int may be more.
If we say they do 28 days take away 8 days min rest then make it 2 rosters to make it the same as us.that makes it 40 days flying per same roster as us. That makes it 10 hours a day if they are supposed to do 400 hours .
I admit this sounds high but if J* made the Thai crew count the slip ports as days off..nahh that is still too much.tYou'd have to have into account hols,etc and they would never stay at home. Even at 152 hours or 204 in a 56 day roster that still means 7.6 per day..Not happy Jan
