330 - Almost exclusively mid range flying to Asia, Europe, and Africa. 6 to 10 hour range. Also three freighters mixed in that go many non EY destinations.

340 - Mostly ULR, some Europe/Asia mid range

Almost all Airbus pilots as a rule are mixed fleet (320/330 or 330/340)

777 - Mix of ULR to North America and Oz, some short to medium range High Density flying mainly to Asia.

This being said, typical rosters vary widely depending on fleet and type mixing. ULR may have more off days, while short haul could fly mostly days and be home more nights etc.

What type of flying are they planning to do with the 787?
