Speedbird, I think you missed the point of my post. I wasn't saying the service is difficult... just that it's not really 'long haul' so maybe some of the crew had their 'flow' interrupted. As in, it's different to having heaps of time like they're used to and I have observed on some of those Sin sectors that *some* crew seem like they've forgotten there's only a couple hours to go not ten and they disappear (I was flying as a pax and it was a 744)
Anyway, someone already explained the crewing/flights to me so I reworded what I was trying to say. I didn't state it as fact, it was just a suggestion as to why Straughanie may have noticed a difference in the flights they took. Only an idea so no need to get worked up
