Royal Brunei Conditions

RFN. As far as I know you have to join through Rishworth. After 1 year you can join RBA. They do not give you a Contract, you will be offered an "Agreement" Terms are being changed all the time. At the moment the exchange is B$ 1.3=Oz$ 1.0. There is talk now of them reducing the school allowance, and reducing the housing allowance even more. At this time you will need to fork out about $300-800 to be able to rent a decent house. There is NO medical cover, you have to pay for that. Increments were cancelled about 2 years ago and there has been no pay rise in the history of the airline. Expect to work your butt off and the hotels down route are not even fit for Roo's. Most pilots are looking to move, so if you are unemployed you have a good chance to get in. If you are employed there is little hope here. It is a safe place, and there is a decent golf course, but you won't have time to play. My DAYS OFF have been changed 4 times this roster, so don't expect too much from a planning point of view. Good Luck.
