did u just say 2500 hudred on a 320....
like every airline in the middle east will take u hands down if and when they have a opening all they ask for is a atp with 500-1000 on type and since u have 2500 i am assuming u have both and more :D

Yes, I have 2500+ hours on A 320 with Indian ATPL.


Is Tiger still hiring?


I know for a fact srilankan is hiring. But they are hiring for 320 fleet only. Change to wide body will happen only after completing 2 years with them and in case they have requirement. Also command upgrade after 6 years.

I have applied with emirates, etihad, Qatar, air Arabia , rak, asiana. Except asiana haven't got reply from anyone. Any advices on the same?

Try Vietnam Airlines and to certain extent Citilink/Garuda if you want to go lower the league.Prrune got active Indian VN pilot as member ,wait for his inputs.
Air Arabia/Qatar have tendency of giving late aknowledgement.
You might need to contact recruiting agency for contract pilot jobs as far as i know and most of them are shitty with crap T&C's.

Ask Jetjocky for Indonesia or Captjns for Gulf positions as they are most active expats on this forum.

Good thinking my friend, when Indian FO will move out, then Jobless pilot's in India will get a chance!:ugh:

try Rishworth Aviation (Bribe):p or thru any agency, they might help you in getting a job on A320 or A330!

All the best happy landing! :ok:

etihad emirates and other such airlines have open house interview as they call them in various places.
they invite people meeting their qualifications to attend such events.
m kinda surprised that you have not heard from them...
