EK schedule change

[KCW]

I received a change of schedule overnight. Between now and Dec 31, I have only two trips -- both of them are EK 227 & EK 228, OMDB-KSEA-OMDB. I fly one trip this week, and another the last week of the month. Nothing else in between, and no leave requested for this month.

Has this happened to anyone else? And if so, why did it happen? I have no idea whether I should feel like I have won the lottery, or if I am about to get in trouble for something.

What's in between the trips? Off days, AD or what?

Listed as off.

Sounds just like a schedule change.

Well then, I guess I am the damn luckiest chap around!! Not so bad to have only two Seattle trips left on my schedule for the month, with a WEEK in between trips!!

What's the trick to getting this kind of schedule every month!?

Enjoy and be thankful (to whom I'm not sure but probably best not to ask)
