Did she say she was DUS based or was she from DUS? There is plenty of FRA based crew that origins from all over Europe and just commutes to work by plane but they are considered FRA based crews!

She said she was DUS-based and had previously been working mostly intra-German and European flights from DUS on the 737.

I think the reason why she was happy to be flying long-haul again is that it is less actual work for the same number of block hours than with lots of short-haul flights.
