Dont get me wrong i LOVE my job, so much so i want to fly MORE!

But my roster is pretty empty, i have 8 flights this month, im just wondering as this is my first airline, and a lot of you on here have experiance, does it get REALLY busy?
and when?

dont think of this as a moan, my job is amazing, :ok:

Hmm I predict you'll get lots of sympathy from some and lots of jealousy from others!

Are you long or short haul?? Charter, schedule or private?

Its Short Haul Charter, im sure it will pick up soon, but im just thinking if the winters are this busy(or not as the case may be), what are the chances of being kept on at the end of the season?

Hmmm

Wish I had your roster!

My is working out at 6 days on 2 days off, and has been like that all winter!

But I am sure that your roster will get busier as we get into the summer!

I've just started flying part time (weekends only) and I am getting eight flights + a month...................
Why dont you look at going part time (lots of airlines do it) and getting another job on the side - at least you can earn some extra money doing that.
You must be flat broke!
