How many off-days do Y O U have???? poll 2002
dear colleagues,. .. .we all know more or less how much money the different airlines are paying their pilots ( thanks to the great thread about that topic here at pprune), but do we all know how much we have to work for it ?? . .so to get us all more informed about that so important subject, i ask you to kindly share your knowledge with the rest of us.. .. .please note your off-days and vacation per year,fleet and type of operation.. .. .i start:. .. .cargolux. .744,freight(sheduled). .off days per year: 9 days in 13 rosters = 117 per year plus 42 vacation days . .= 159 days per year. .additionally we get a rest day after flights with a considerable time difference,but not when followed by off-days anyway.. .. .to add some political motivation :. .cargolux-management plans not to hire any new crews in 2002 regardless of a new aircraft <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="mad.gif" /> arriving in fall due to "optimized" rostering of the existent personel... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="mad.gif" />

easyJet. .. .6 on 3 off so anything between 9-12 days off a month. However one of those days can be a "flexiday", i.e. on the 6th day on they can work us til 3am on the 1st day off or at the end of our 3 days off we can go back to work before 6am.. .. .35 days leave plus 4 request days. Wrap around days too, a 7 day block with wrap around days = 12 days off.

For contract pilots you get 8-10 days per month + that you accumulate 2 vacation days per month for a 6 months contract. These 2 vacation days you could ask to be added to your monthly off days, and if the rostering officer understands that you`re not living permanently at your base of operation, he/she will give them to you, may be. But since we are living in a fast changing aviation world, things may have changed when the summer season kicks off.
