Is Easyjet an Easy life
Just out of interest how many sectors do you average on a working day. After Mondays Airline it gave the impression of a 25 minute hop LPL-BFS, an overnight, a round of golf in the morning and then a 1800ish(Airforce 1 allowing) 25 min sector BFS-LPL.
Please tell me it not true?

Come, now! EZY do have two sector days: the awful night Athens, the night Malaga, the horrible night Palma (0140 check-in, my friend tells me, when he is sufficiently rested to pick a telephone up and string a sentence together). So there!
Of course, if you want to fly at night you could get a charter job and have the winter off, like the rest of us!!!
And I didn't mention the strings of night 'split duties' allowing a splendid sequence of days with four hours sleep each night followed by tossing and turning by daylight, then back to the self-propelled office.
Did I see a lorry full of extra-green grass seed arrive at Luton the other day???

Didn't I say don't believe everything you see? - or hear for that matter!
Yes there is a night Athens route. In the last 9 months I've done 4 of them!
Night Palma/Malaga? Yes I've done about 2 per month on average.
Split duties? Yes, but new agreement does not allow more than 2 consecutive such duties. We did do 3 in a row in April but that was soon knocked on the head.
I am not knackered, sleep deprived or incapable of speaking on the phone. I fly hard and get paid prettty well.
It's not all a bed of roses but what job is?

It depends which seat you sit in. LHS quite busy, but RHS not so. May roster; 9 days standby and 10 days off, June roster; 7 days standby and 9 days off. Averaging less than 50 hours flying per month. Four sector days not the average for me, 2 sector days mostly. Hopefully things will pick up.
