Yes but only for LGW based pilots, they have a week stay in Mauritius.

I'd estimate 60% of my trips involve some kind of positioning this could be taxi to BHX, taxi back from EDI or scheduled service Cancun to Puerto Vallarta via Mexico City. I use own way travel when I can for example I can get to BHX for 10 quid on the train so do that and go late at night and claim the cash back from the company. To some it's a hastle but considering I'll position two or three times a month, compared with the average commute I can handle it.

767 scheduled for Dubai and Barbados this Winter, when it leaves the fleet is anyone's guess, I think the latest plan is 2018/19 with the 75 around till maybe 2022 but it changes every year. They are great workhorses and the lease rates on the 76 is cheap compared to the 78, so it always seems to pick up extra work.
