Jet Airways
That makes good sense and is as it should be. No need for expats if there are enough local crews. No offence taken.
I hope someday in the future they may need short term coverage. I don't think I'd want to be away from home more then 4 to 6 months.
I did a short contract in the Carribean and it was a wonderful way to see the area and meet the people. We also learned some ideas we were able to take home.
A few of us at that time thought the idea of an exchange program (like the military) amoung 'like minded' carriers would be beneficial for all concerned. Lately at WestJet, the idea has been mentioned off and on.
In our case, like minded B737NG operators like Southwest, Ryanair, VirginBlue had been mentioned and I'm sure progressive companys like Jet Airways would fit in as well.
At this time WestJet operates 42 Boeing 737s with orders for about 100 to go.
