Cathay Freighter Oz

[olirindis]

Greetings all,

Does anyone have any info on the Cathay Sydney/Melbourne based Freighter operation in terms of route structure/trip lengths/roster stability/days away and so on.

Many thanks....

Fragrant Harbour might provide you with an answer.

I'm not sure if any 400F guys are based in AUS yet as they're still converting from the "Classic", so until the training's finished they won't have a realistic AUS based roster, but I'd guess it'll be in the 10-12 day pattern, like some of the European rosters. I'll ask a guy I know who's SYD based and in the middle of his training when I see him next.

Thanks fire wall,

Does that route structure vary? or is it till pension?

By the way your team won did they? My team certainly did, so much so that I fear they might take the cup AGAIN..... Have a Gr8 day
