Sing Yew 1 Report post Posted October 27, 2005 Walter, children giveaway - normally 16 units per flight ex-kul. But then again, depends on the sector, stock, and uplift from the catering/inflight services. plastic plane - I am not sure. Never saw one onboard my long haul A330 series flights to date. Sing Yew, I've been working for MAS for less than a year now. We hardly get rostered for IPH and BWN sectors. I did my first and only IPH flight to date, back in July and BWN last month but never night stop in KBR 12033[/snapback] I flew IPH - KUL on the 16th of July, not too sure if you were flying then. What are the long haul A330 routes that you have done to date ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

M N Fairizuan 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2005 Xian - Nightstop flight and good allowance too We get our new roster on every 19th, 20th or 21st day of every month. Fixed roster, but we can "swap" our flight(s) with other fellow cabin crew (same rank/category). As for "subject-to-change", it happens occasionally. Stewardess always got "good" roster one. minimum sectors, good nightstop and good allowance. We can only do (maximum ) 5 "juice" or short sectors per day. Or 2 "meal" sectors plus another 3 "juice" sectors as per contract/agreement/MASEU. My next safety class is due on next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
