Well done on getting through to 2-2-1 !! It's never easy regardless of the airline.
I share your point on expereinced crew, I have previous experience with MYT, but not a great deal, and there were people there that had been flying for years, at senior level! The only conclusion I can come to is that (if your day was like mine) there where 25-30??? people there.
I would say a 3rd of those were applying for CM or Grade A, when in reality the initial launch will be with just 1 B767 until later in the year, so competition for the position is much higher. I think also, they are really looking more at attitude and energy, as it's a start-up and th4ey need crew that are really ''up for it'' lol!!
Let me know how you get on Vodkaholic!!! I've been waiting since last week, not sure how much longer until I burst! I really want it now!!!
