ticket reimbursement
Alldaysushi,
I am currently waiting for my visa to go do the Sim and Medical checks.
After that, who knows how long it will be before I go to Jeddah. Although, I was told that the guys who interviewed just one day before me (last May) are flying out this weekend.
When I got called to Cairo, I had to pay for my own ticket. But it was only slightly over US$500. So it was not a big deal. I flew from a city that was not on the SV network. So there was no time for them to arrange company travel. I have not gotten paid back yet. But I was assured by three different SV staff that I would in Jeddah. My gut feeling is that I will see the money only if I get hired. The way I see it, I got to spend 3 days in Cairo in a luxury hotel and visit a city that I had never been to before. All that for US$500.
For those who will be able to make it to Cairo, you will probably pass the first stage easily. Last May, they were very eager to hire us. Everybody being interviewed agreed on that.
Cheers
