Yep ... it’s like we have two different airlines ... I always preferred the slower pace and more time off.Originally Posted by Hedley
Perhaps drama was the wrong word. How about hassle? On the WB, there are just 2 legs per trip, 2 briefings, things seem to run more reliably, and fewer days on the road. On the NB you have to deal with 2-3 (sometimes more) legs per day, crew changes, briefings, better chance of delays bouncing through the hubs for 3-4 days........ Being on a WB is definitely a slower pace, more relaxed, and far more productive. For only $40k difference in pay, I’ll take my time in the bunk, pass on all of the extra work, and end up home an extra 50-60 days per year. Again, it’s great to have a choice as to what kind of flying that you want to do.

. It's not the airline we used to work for and a whole bunch of that is a shame. (Standby for acerbic rebuke from one of the usual suspects!)
