No what I was saying is that they have agreed a "FLY ANYWHERE AGREEMENT". Basically it gives the company a chance to open up routes to ANYWHERE in the world and set agreement is already there depending on length of flight and how many sectors. No specific airport is listed. It was for example

** duty time of 6+ westbound there'd be minimum agreed crew/pilot, turn around and no crew rest area (beds), sector payment

** duty time of 10+ eastbound with two sectors perhaps an extra crew member/pilot and crew rest area, sector payment

** duty time of 11+ southbound and 2 hours time difference, extra crew member, crew rest area, sector payment

It was more detailed than this and quite comprehensive from what I can remember. There were other parts to it besides number of crew, turn around times, sector payment and whether there were crew beds or not but I can't remember.

Hope I made myself more clear this time. sometimes I'm too tired and I don't sound very logical.
