Hello all,

I was interested to join Flybaboo this year on the new Aicraft, but after having a long phone call with an ex-colleague working for them, I decided not to resign from my actual employer.

It seems that 4 captains and 1 copi left the company this year.

Advantages:
- If you live in GVA, you're home almost every night
- Nice atmosphere between crew members.

Disadvantages:
- Below market working conditions (Salary, off days)
- No Loss of licence
- 39 days vacation including 11 Swiss public holidays.
- No Seniority

His planning was quite heavy, around 90hrs per month, sometimes he flew up to 7 or 8 days in a row.

Apparently one concern is to plan a career as they have no will to apply a seniority model, some pilots who started with Flybaboo years ago have left because they were not given the chance to fly the new jet aircraft.

Well, after all I heard from different sources (some inside the company), I took my decision not to join.

Any of you got other informations, sources?

Keep the blue sky up!
