Our rosters came quite a few days early this month, which was a pleasantly unexpected surprise!
After having been very lucky and getting quite a few flights that I asked for this month, I should have been on reserve, or “bottom bid” for February. However I was lucky enough to receive a fairly normal roster, with (almost) no nasty surprises! I asked for 5 days off at the end of the month, to try and keep up with my 2017 resolutions of travelling more, and I actually got them, which I’m quite surprised about.
I’ll also be flying off to:
- ZRH – Zurich, Switzerland
- DOH – Doha, Qatar (turnaround)
- DUB – Dublin, Ireland
- ZRH – Zurich, Switzerland
- COK -Cochin, India (turnaround)
- IAH – Houston, USA
As you can see, two trips to Zurich, which always pop up on my roster. No complaints there as it’s a shortish flight, usually not too busy, and a great allowance.
It’s been a couple of years since I went to Dublin so I’m looking forward to that one, any tips or recommendations are much appreciated!
Houston is now back on the 777, and that’ll be my first long-haul flight since working in first class.
Only two turnarounds, a quick Doha (around 40-45 minutes each way!) and a Cochin, not a particularly desired flight as it leaves around 2am and gets back around 12pm the next day. Horrible timings and a long flight, but let’s hope for the best!
As for my 5 days off at the end of the month, a little getaway is in the works with my friend Kirsty, fingers crossed everything works out…stay tuned to see where we end up!
