    Anyway, let’s get back on topic (*feelings of guilt and remorse*).

    I know not where you hail from jerrymoman, but on this thread alone there is a combined total of at least70 years ROV experience that I know of, and I have not included Scot because no-one except Savante and I understand ‘powers of’ after digits.(Sorry guys, but it’s true 😆 ) Every single agency that I and others know of, do not ordinarily book single tickets for their guys. To some they may look like single tickets because the return portion is blank, or even not there. However, the booking code is what has the information in it. Rumour is that even Savante can’t decode it! 😯

    Did you by any chance have to fork out for your return airfare, like out of your own pocket?

    I ask, because sometimes when ROVbods are dispatched to remote (and I’m talking about worse-than-Siberia-type remote) regions that have no stable communication network, the agency will make a prior arrangement for you to fend for yourself, so to speak, and add any costs incurred to your monthly expenses sheet. Alternatively they will give to a substantial wad, on account.

    Were you working in a ‘remote’ locale?

    Two questions asked, answer of course is optional. 😈 Es debilem vinculum, vale!

    And to think I used to like this informative, helpful, and in some respects even useful website. You guys need to air your grievances on the heli deck or something. Queensbury Rules(for those old enough to know what that means!!!)
    Even O#* Beef H@@ked wasn’t this bitchy. And I never really took an interest in that one.

    For a few years now I have been issued nothing other than one way tickets and I can guarantee that there is not a return sector booked into them, whether it says so or not.

    This practice is more common than it used to be.

    Nobody is getting

    as they are duty bound to get you home anyway.

    In 23 years offshore I have not been left to find my own way home, nor have I been held to ransom (shanghai’d?) based on not having a return ticket.
