Does a pilot know where he is flying in, for example, 5 days?
And a few more questions, maybe there is a pilot among us here 🙂
How many flights does a pilot have per day?
Is the pilot allowed to take a break for a few hours in the country he flew to or does he have to fly back to his home country where he came from immediately after landing?
Are there days when you don't feel like flying at all?
What was the longest flight and how many countries have you (to the pilots) visited?

There are airlines that run like this:
1. By the latest 27th of a month, a service plan for the coming month is available.
There are all flights, free days, seminars, trainings and simulator lessons (including tests).
Two. The EU regulation allows max. 6 Legs (flying) per day (above the short distance) or 13 flight hours (above the long distance).
3. All periods of service and rest depend on the information provided by the EU-OPS 1,
“Council Regulation on common technical rules and administrative procedures for commercial air transport by aircraft”
There is a position on flights, flight hours, break times, rest periods, time shift, etc.
4. One of the longest flights from DE is the LH-Nonstop flight from FRA to EZE with about 14 hours. Then the crew has 48 hours left there before it goes back.
Five. Probably the crews like all the workers are also: once you’re better on it and you could dig the world.
6. As I belonged to the ground staff, I cannot answer the country question for the pilots.
7. My longest flights so far have been to Los Angeles, Hong Kong, Seoul, Tokyo and Osaka (all with about 12 hours +/-), then years ago to Jakarta (although with stop in Singapore) and also Buenos Aires with 14 hours.
1. There’s a schedule every month. However, it can be changed from personnel planning, delays or for other reasons by the company.
Two. The short distance is between 1-5 Legs (flying) per day. The time between arrival and departure varies between 30 minutes and a few hours depending on the airline. If you have a night stop, you get out and go on the next day. Then you will simply be replaced by the crew coming from the night stop. Depends on how the schedule previously looked like many flights have been made and how long the cockpit and the cabin have been in service.
On the long distance you usually only make one flight per day and then fly back to one of the following days. On the one hand, the length of the stay depends on the legal minimum, as well as on the collective agreements which, in part, have defined more leisure at the destination.
3. The longest flights offered by German airlines are either west coast America or towards Japan (corrects me if I am wrong;) ).
Everyone has no desire to work 😛
Although not a pilot but every flight is different and when the distance is flying you will always come to the same place with time but the distances between them can be several months.
I think the pilots know their flights 1-2 weeks in advance.
1. Line pilots get a schedule every month, there’s where they’re going for the next month. There are also Standby days, as you may need to fly unannounced.
Two. This depends on the length of the flights.
3. Of course, you can think of that.
