Thumbs up

I am on the A330 and the commuting works very well. During New Zealand's summer it is a daily flight from Seoul ICN but in the winter it drops to 5 days per week. It also departs AKL at 0910 after the clocks go back which makes it awkward if you have to commute into AKL by air.
KAL give us 3 travel days per month - ICN-AKL is 2 travel days (over night) and AKL-ICN 1 travel day. These are in addition to the 9 days off and 2 leave days per month. I have always been given the days off I asked for, sometimes months in advance.
I arrive back in Seoul in the evening and my first duty is usually the next evening from Seoul.
It is a good commuting contract.
