roster and blocking
read the previous post's----these are factual and first hand experience.
There is no roster more than a few day's in advance and that constantly changes. Day's constantly fall below GCAA / CAR minimum, then you must force the scheduler to add day's off back in so the 3 month average meets minimum requirements. If you dont do this, then the GCAA will be wanting to talk to you -- fact.
This company has demonstrated that it "Will and HAS" blocked nearly every pilot, flight attendant and other staff from joining other carriers of "all fleets" in the entire Gulf region. Like it or not, all these carriers respect a certain code of conduct amongst themselves. They have even gone so far as to refuse to cancel Visa's or transfer visa's---fact.
This company has demonstrated that they do not reveal any bonds or fee's for training or other circumstances in the job offer. This may or may not be revealed later, after you have already been in the country and obtained your Residence Visa and signed the "employment contract". This normally differs from the job offer that got you there --- fact.
