Being stuck at home with abdominal pains which are not nice when you're 5months pregnant. Had to spend our anniversary in hospital instead of going to a conert up in BHX which we had booked last may
. To top it up yes rosters are out now, but my man has been given 6 days reserve over xmas, and they expect him to work over new years as well......I am so
we wanted to go to italy either at xmas or new year's and it now seems impossible, I haven't had ONE xmas with my family for the last 6 years thanks to this wonderful industry. I just think that it's not fair, I know the needs of the airline but some people seem to work every single xmas/new year's.
That's it!! Rant over....

Hello
Well First things first ..Don't you dare start the drink yet until the little one is born and Congratultion's , My best friend has just had a little baby boy Ahhh!!! . And I understand where you coming from , I don't think you want to be HOME ALONE over Christmas !! ,
But I have just had the cold , And I'm sure it's going around "Wink , Wink" . And book a confirmed flight some where nice
I'm a lucky one got Christmas off , But I thought I would be working so my Partner is going to his folks and i'll be drinking sherry by myself, Singing I'm dreaming of a white Christmas ...Anyone having a Party ??
Now you take care and put your feet up and relax ,
Also what ever you decide . I hope you have a Merry Christmas

Aaaaaaahhhhh.......I still remember...Xmas 2002....an 8-day trip to the Maldives....fabulous crew...gorgeous sea....I didn't really mind working that year! But the year after that I got a night Rhodes, and the year after sby and I ended up being called out for a PRN (yum yum) and last year some other which I have managed to wipe from my memory!! Not to mention working every single New Year - double man-dub last year with check-in at 0525....
I know I am hormonal but it's so ridiculous it almost makes me want to laugh
This was suppsoed to be our first xmas together and our last, since next year it will definitely be different!
I hope you get to go to a nice party and drink all what I cannot drink myself!

I believe that you see dec 06 roster with nothing after it because it's not quite ready yet. Try in a couple of hours it might work

Tuismile,
I spoke with a very helpful lady and another gentleman at scheduling a few hours ago and both of them assured me the rosters will be out after 9pm today.
Just over and hour to go,
