Just wondering what the Easy Crewing staff are doing between midnight and 5am? When I worked for a Scheduled airline I know what I was doing, taking all of my breaks at once - in a sleeping bag under the desk?

I work 12 hours 4 on 4 off and yes the shifts can be busy, stressful and hectic but when you can take 4 days leave and have 12 days off or its a quiet day then everything is put into perspective.

Any airlines adopted an 8 hour shift scheme?

Grabber I reckon they would spend the night shift picking up the pieces from the previous day

Talking of Crewing to crew ratios.

We have 3 Controllers on shift for just under 4,000 crew. This is only possible by the use of an IVR system (Interactive Voice Response). Crew self collect roster changes, and call for automatic delay information for flights.

The reduction in workload for the crew controllers is huge. Well worth looking into.....if the boss will listen.

What IVR system are you using?

[lmso]

is it any wonder walla that some of crewing aren't stressed at work.We can all be less stressed if we ignore the job that we are actually there for. I know of someone in that office who actually just picks up the phone then hangs up when they can't cope.I wonder who it could be............................................?

This was developed inhouse with help from a UK software company who has experience in this field with other airlines.

There are many companies out there who can provide IVR systems, but you need to taylor them to your environment.

Once the initial shock has worn off by crew self collecting their roster changes, they will love it and so will crewing.

You almost have time to put your feet up !!!!

Grabber, we do a 8.5 hr shift. 6 days on 3 off. But I allways liked the sound of 12hrs 4/4. Oul location is as far as you can get from the uk.

a/ How much they pay?
b/ How many crew would you be responsible for?
c/ Hours of work?

Many thanks,
Crewingb.
