When there was an exodus from my lot to DHL a few years ago, the rumour was a 4 night on, 4 day off sort of roster... Hotelling in various European cities on the duty time days... Always returning to EMA though for the days off.

Whether that's still the case, I don't know...

Working for DHL

My Lord Croft,
The job is fine and getting better. Fair roster, Live where you want within reason, report and then enter the network for 5 to seven on and then days off back at EMA. Well maintained airframes, quieter working environment, experienced crews and high standard of operation. Tiring at night , yes, but no more than flogging around with the charters day and night with slot times or enjoying your 100 hrs a month east west oceanic. Money purchase pension 5% contribution and 5 star hotels to rest. Some dont enjoy this lifestyle, fair enough, but the security is there, big time. Jobs a goodun. cheers koi

Nil recruitment planned at this time. Some Pilots off to TFLY but fingers crossed turnover remains extremely low.
