Island Hopping Opportunities

Hi all, and Happy New Year.

I'm currently wading through the ATPL Exams, and hope to be up to fATPL/ME level by Autumn this year.

I was curious about opportunities for island hopping in places like the Maldives, Seychelles etc. At 23 I have no ties in this country and am prepared to travel anywhere for that elusive first flying job.

Does anyone have any knowledge or experience of such operations and their recruiting methods and entry requirements?

Also, would such operations require an IR, as I was hoping of gaining some commercial experience for 6 months or so before commencing an IR Course?

If not island hopping, are there any other chances for someone willing to travel and work anywhere?

Any advice much appreciated.

Best regards,

Matt
