Hmmm - i've heard other stories about Astraeus - namely that they aren't so hot to work for. Horror stories abound about crew that have tried to leave after a short time online (realising what a mistake they had made) and being told that they had to PAY to leave!! Didn't think anyone bonded their crew anymore! Also heard that they are very strict (nothing wrong with having standards tho) to the point of being dictatorial. I do know that a lot of ex Air UK Leisure / Leisure Int. crew have risen from the grave and dusted off their ice tongs to join Astraeus - they seem to be under the impression that it is like Leisure in the 'old days' - well that means it will be cheap, badly run and slightly common! Sorry guys - I know what im talking about!
