A bit of the current discussion but...
I have read through most(?) of the old thread and I'm missing one bit of info. I understand you get roughly 12days of a month but how long are those bits (I'm sure there are good and bad ones but...) minimum three or maybe even four at a time?
With Longhaul is there a general rythm as to when you depart and arrive back ie can you expect to get some extra time to commute on the day before or after the flight?
Very good thread!
