I'm just trying to work out Xmas and NY...I've been with my BF 1 year next month.

He goes on a trip in Mid Dec that lasts until Dec 27th (he does 17 day trips)...He will be in Singapore from the morning of the 25th to the morning of the 27th..I will be flying over to be with him there....we are just deciding if its worth me going over to Australia after that to try to be with him for NY...he gets 3 days off after the Xmas trip but then most likely goes on 3 hr standby. His new roster comes out on Dec 25th

Would be pretty mean of them to turn him around so quickly but its not uncommon (we call QF's system e-bay!) and given that he is low on seniority, its a strong possibility. Last year he got sent to LA 3 days before Xmas and lost Xmas day completely thanks to flying back/time differences.

I'm in a position where I don't know if its worth spending the $$$ to wing it and go over there in case he gets sent out on a trip. Hmmmm. Would be great though to see the fireworks at Sydney Harbour bridge.

Decisions decisions. Humpf.
