I knew someone that worked for this airline a while ago, and hated it, said it was the worst airline in the world. Pay is bad about 14000 a year, no flight pay, either work early or lates, early starts at about 6.30am with airport standby after for about 4 hours, then lates at 2.00 until about 8.30, only 6 crew at lcy, very very very young and inexperienced base stewardess and line trainer, line trainer 6 months experience, no other flying, about 20 years old, base manager not much better. She was glad to get out to a proper airline. Managed out of cambridge where you do your training in a b and b, not bad, nasty uniform, very small aircraft with a biscuit service!!!!!!! Keep loosing crew, abiut 3 have gone recently, and remember, only a base of 6.

If you have flown before you would hate it, old fashioned, no standards, and what the management say, goes. As for first timers, try a big player, with ok pay, some routes worth seeing and some perks. Not these guys, bearly just an airline that makes no money as far as she is concerned, and I trust her judgement greatly. Others from her course have also all left after paying off a long and expensive bond! Do airlines still do that????

Be warned
