Re: Roster disruptions/general bullsh*t at Jet2.

I have followed this thread for a while as one of a number of experienced yet young expat FO's seriously considering a return home due to lifestyle. I have well and truly had my fill with my current lot and would be looking at either a UK based LH e.g BA, or waiting for VS, or a northern based SH e.g Jet2, especially seeing as a command is still light years away.

I am well aware of the tangibles e.g salary, block hours etc, but could somebody be kind enough to elaborate a little bit as to what sort of "crap" we are talking about with respect to things like roster disruption? Preferably with real life examples (as far as anonymity will allow). Weekends off during summer etc? Can they change your days off? "Crap" is after all, entirely relative and I would be grateful to see whether the "different shade of brown" experienced at J2 would adequately compensate for the significant pay cut.

PM's if preferred,

Best regards.
