IFE,"Been there, done that, got the T-shirt" for many years I have done the multi sector(6 sectors were the norm) jumping around up & down the Gulf so I, like many others, feel like it is now some one else's turn to "enjoy" that type of flying. For info CCQ A330 to A320 has been on hold for over 18 months.
This would be a non topic if the company had a completely open & fair rostering system but that is not the case & each of us must fight for what's right for them. A fully automated sytem(with no outside interference-i.e. A.A.) would be perfect but we know that any budget that was there has been blown on the wonderfully & fully functional EFB!

Xaror, you conviently forgot that CMB nightstop(I think that's around 4-5 a week) & KTM/DAC nightstops are crewed 95% by CCQ. 330/340 do the turn arounds.
Number of flight deck operating A320 is more than twice as A330/340.
There are around 55*330/340 Capt's & 120*320. Check the seniority list yourself if you don't believe me.
