I don't think the 380 guys are working too hard, so they have to make up hours for them some where....
Originally 94:55 hours, but already one layover trip has been removed from my roster. So l guess l can look forward to STBY, sim support or night turns instead to get me to 91:59 hours for the month.
Have to say it seemed odd having every ULR crew doing standby prior to a trip. A couple each day would suffice.
Having said that, any three-crew JFK may have to have more than usual coverage ULR standby though, if what was going on five years ago is any indication on the 340.
The 414 standby does have to be realigned if it hasn't already. Not much time to get to work from a call out to beat the curfew.
Discretion out of DXB (and other ports)? Been asked and "told" several times, but never accepted and always declined!
