I know an ex BA pilot who always preferred the European routes rather
than Transatlantic as the former had more real flying and he got to go

Probably considerably healthier too. Sitting down for long periods plus
constant jet lag is very bad for a persons health.

Aeroflot got round that by getting crews to maintain Moscow time
regardless of where they were in the world.

Thats one approach, but the subconcious isn't fooled that easily - if its
