Thanks for the info kokatota and tfly737. It is appreciated.
Purely in terms of number of days off, how many would you get short haul vs long haul?
JW411 - it is for precisely these reasons that I am asking the questions. Everything is a balancing act between lifestyle, job security etc. Just want as accurate a picture to make a decision from as possible. For example, it would appear that job security is better at BA than Virgin. Would you not agree? So a risk for a better lifestlye vs losing your job.......
Not an easy decision to make, assuming you could get both job offers on the table of course!!
