A LGW based colleague told me his Jan roster wasn't 5/4 . . . which would suggest not so well. Truly hoping that isn't the case, as it was a fairly fundamental improvement for the many based guys not living in the SE of England, one that we had hoped would filter down to the other contract bases.

Nrn, I'm currently based in LPA. In my case I received a transfer to my requested base (lgw in May) after my second day after arriving in LPA. From what i have seen nas try's to keep its pilots happy.

" i would guess that the recently announced Tui charter work at LGW would probably extend Northwards, Norwegian have a massive charter operation in Scandinavia."
Would you care to expand on what TUI work at LGW Norwegian have been given??

The information can be found under the heading charter contracts. Does not specify LGW. But certainly specifies TUI UK among others.

I can only assume it is the delights of downtown Crawley
Lots of British guys who are not from the SE of England find commuting from AGP/ALC easier & actively avoid LGW as a base, conversely many from CPH find it the best option in lieu of a Scandi basing.
As was mentioned a few posts above, did the Nov/Dec 5/4 trial become permanent, or was it (as someone told me ) dropped ?

well crew night in crawley is always an eventful evening! Makes sense with the commuting links.
Well hopefully with all the expansion more spaces will open up and local guys may get a look in too!!
