Be careful.There is a big difference between Air Atlanta Iceland and Air Atlanta Europe.In AAI you work as a contractor.You have a say when you want to go home,when you want leave etc.,but then you don't get paid.If you are sick you don't get paid too.When you are paid it is 'off shore' in US $,so it could be tax free.You get overtime if you do more than 75 hours in a callender month.You get given free accomodation(hotel or flat) at your base plus tranport to and from the airport.You get given airline tickets home,even if it's Australia.You get incremental pay after you have worked a full year(ie 365 days on).The downside is you may be sent anywhere in world the contracts are,and at short notice.
In AAE,you get a fixed wage for 900hours per year..no effective overtime(£300 for a captain if called to work whilst on a day off,if called to work on a day off the day before..no £300).You get £2 per hour flying duty..not for gnd school or sim.You pay UK NI tax and the tax authorities know you are on payroll(deducted at source).You only get 28 days off per year.If you live in Europe,ie fairly close,you pay your own fare home and back..and the most days off in a row is usually 3.You have to provide your own transport and accom.The upside is you are based in the UK and will not be sent off to Timbuctou by some nerd in Iceland.
Some who have joined AAE from other European countries are regretting not going to AAI.Both AAI and AAE are recruiting.
