in general, scheduling issues, mainly a recent change where schedulers appear to have become inflexible with certain aspects, eg first and last duty, thus meaning that some crews are having to burn a day off at home because they miss their commute flight home on the last work day or need to come back early to meet schedule requirements.
There is no contractual protection for this BUT the schedulers have managed to assist for the last 15 years, now suddenly it is a problem.
Duties and flights are becoming more fatiguing, a lot of pilots are complaining of being CONSTANTLY tired. New duty patterns seem to be aggravating this. It may not be on purpose but the schedulers seem unable to understand the fatigue problem.
Uncompetitive salary package, I'll say no more.
I'm sure others would be able to add or elaborate
When/if they fix it who knows! I fear it will take a drastic change in manning levels before any action is taken
