So yes SmartLynx has many bad points, but most of the people use it as an hour building airline and for that purpose thank god they exist and don’t ask 500h on Type to apply. Thanks to this, pilots can join the pilot market and be more credible to legacy airlines. The only problem is are they really going to sue you if you don’t pay their contractual penalty when you want to leave.
Many left without paying, noone will sue you, at the worst they wont give you your reference letter, hours certificate or whatever you ask them, they will simply ghost you and that's it..they are just a bunch of bottom feeder scumbags that can only prosper in pockets of legislative grey areas where no real contracts, securities and T&Cs are applied.
