Interesting about the police...seems it works for them.
Worked for a carrier in south asia a few years ago. Always thought they had a completely fair and unbiased roster pattern.
They asked for each tech crew to state which flight(s) they preferred, and did their very best to assign same.
For example, many liked to fly to LHR (2-3 day layover) or SYD (7 days).
OTOH, some (yours truly) preferred NRT and FRA.
You could request as many of these as you liked...and if no one else wanted 'em...they were yours.
Of course, no one liked the KWI and DHA turnarounds, so these were apportioned fairly to all.
Worked for them anyway
IF airlines would ASK crew for their opinions...they might just be surprised.
