Without a soubt the charter crew work unbelievably hard in flight compared to the locos, but at the end of the day you have more crew per flight. You try doing a 6 sector AMS with 149 pax on a 35 min flt, and serve them all with drinks and clear in with only 3 crew! Thats hard work! This month I have 106 sectors! Surely from this amount of sectors, i have the experience behind me for quick promotion. after all we do have more responsibility? There is no need to wait 2 years for promotion to senior. I hate to say this, but it is most definately true, don't you think that the locos crew have to put up with the most Sh*t and abuse from the scummy pax? Not a day goes by that someone isn't spitting in my face with rage. Being able to deal with that is enough experience for me!
