:ok: True
Seriously. I for one am starting to hate this job. Had much more fun in work & life flying 737 low cost - and never had this feeling of a zombie like existence. |
Max 2 in a row for the entire month, this job is getting better and better...reality is far more horrible than forum's gossip. 13 years in this Cie and I just can't believe what we are accepting from this &é&§&@&§§§ management....the only good part of it is that I won't regret my very very soon resignation.....
|
So has anyone noticed an improvement? Quite a few schedules have been reduced in October so it wouldn't be unreasonable to expect...
|
Read somewhere else that the 4th LGW has been binned, things must be pants if they are cancelling Londonistan flights, even if it is Gatport.
|
Middle bid 6 days off in a row.
90hrs :bored: but not bad trips, no ULR and only two turns that are not at night! halas |

Stunning rostering this month, augmenting prior to a long leave:ugh: Why not a handling trip? Just dumb IMHO.

They expect a full-service airline to honour its schedule. I know every airline has to cancel routes, but this year the short notice (eg. I think Panama was 2 weeks) will severely hack off the punters. Look at the date on this http://www.routesonline.com/news/38/airlineroute/269004/emirates-shelves-planned-4th-daily-london-gatwick-flight-due-oct-2016/ And it's been available for Sale for months http://www.theeksource.com/emirates-announce-4th-daily-london-gatwick-service/ Enough.

I left it to them and then the evening before the Japan trip after leave I get a call to tell me I'm now operating. Only took them the 3 weeks I was on leave to figure that one out. Surely with all the limitations built into the rostering system they could have included one about flight crew recency requirements. Can't believe how late they have left it to bin the LGW. It would appear this place is running on headless chicken mode at the moment. No foresight, no real planning, knee jerk reactions on an almost daily basis. |
Oct
Middle bid
Lhs 777 95 hrs 9 days off Absolutely nothing I asked for. Thank you EK, for pushing me to look for another job. |
many are looking but nobody does the walk
|
natops, pretty much sums the situation up.
My applications went in yesterday...................................:ugh: Yet the company have it within their power to stop the rot, but choose, for whatever reason, not to. I would love for someone on the 9th floor to explain how, if a pilot flies his allocated share of the roster, why oh why can they not be allowed a roster to commute? Just about every other expat staffed airline manage to provide this lifestyle enhancer, yet EK choose to continue with the proven failed current model and the exodus from both seats continues to accelerate. And they call themselves "managers":ugh: |

Indeed, though the Status Quo, is the continued deterioration of T+Cs and the growing snowball of leavers. So "Good Job" then! |

Obviously you're not being productive enough. I'd expect a call to visit the chief on your being a "lazy pilot" within a week or two perhaps?? :-) Kap |
777 complaints sounding very similar to the 330/340
|
Didn't bid for anything and got a reasonable roster again second month running.
|
45hrs flying 50 credit and ten days off in a row ! 2-3 days off in between trips.
|
Credit where due . Boeing , high bid got everything , everything I asked for . A little shocked but happy .
|
thatwasclose. what are you smoking?
I was top bid this month and I am quite senior now (for what its worth anyway) : I got ONE trip I asked for in the whole month. The worst roster ever with lovely layovers in India I never asked for and nearly 100 hours block and a massive 9 days off. All I bid for was UK, EU and S-A and all I got was 1 nice trip and the rest f* all! This month all I bid for was 2 days off. Guess what: I'm working what else did u expect.... In the old days I could have easily been happy with this in a bottom month, but nowadays :mad::mad::mad: |
