No sleep, different set of logbooks for pay, schedule, and rest. Rest rules routinely broken, mandatory extensions, expense reports denied, health insurance plans swapped from Allianz to Middle East/Indian inferior plan. Housing poor, arbitrary rule where pilots of same nationality can’t fly together making rotations to homeland hard to bid. Crew meals often round-tripped catered Briyani du jour. Airport hotel overseas layovers, rule you must be within an hour of hotel for reroutes (rule for no alcohol on layovers for reroute protections) Overall a bait-and-switch for most. BEWARE! And look, shiny wide bodies.
