“Alpha AviationAcademy is a joint venture between Air Arabia and Alpha Aviation Group”

I don’t think it ever was. Although Air Arabia owns 51% of Alpha Shares, it was a contractual agreement (however no one has ever seen that contract) that Alpha would train MPL students for Air Arabia. There was, and still is no guarantee of a job at the end of training, even after giving away AED 440 000 and 14 months of your life to Alpha.


“if Air Arabia is not mentioned on, nor a signer to,AAG's MPL training contracts, that's a huge red flag”

About 2 years ago, Alpha put a full page ad in the Gulf Times for MPL training, and in the background was a photo of an Air Arabia A320. Alpha got into so much trouble for this. All subsequent ads had the same photo, but the Air Arabia sign on the fuselage, as well as the logo on the tail were ‘photo shopped’ and taken out.
