Well i for one find it really disappointing that the fixed roster is something that is potentially on its way out, certainly for new starters and under threat for existing pilots. I don't work for Easy but always looked at them as a company that would be worth getting to for the better T&C's, fixed roster, modern fleet and seemingly a happy work force!!!!!
Having only ever experienced a flexi roster at another low cost airline I can certainly see the huge benifit a fixed roster would offer, not just in terms of reduced fatigue (ie: never working 6 days in a row starting on earlies for 3 days, swapping to lates on day 4, then finishing on a late on day 6 and having 2 days off followed by an early), the ability to plan your life more than 4 weeks in advance which is a huge bonus in this industry especially with a family.....
I wonder if some people won't realise what they have until they've worked a full summer on a flexi roster and it is gone and all for the sake of a few extra £££...
Stand up and fight to keep it.....
