surely not 4th November 2008 12:05

There are always two sides to a story, and I can state that I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Virgin Nigeria, and found the majority of Nigerians I dealt with to be great fun and good at their jobs.

I'm not a pilot, but in my work I dealt with many of the pilots expat and local and most were proud to be working for Virgin Nigeria. I sincerely hope that the cameraderie hasn't disappeared.

Yup I agree Lagos is not downtown Manahttan, but Victoria Island was getting some good restaurants and clubs before I left. I guess if you're not prepared to try to make the best of the place, you'll hate it........... but then I'd not want to live in Hong Kong but others love it. Personal choice, neither is right nor wrong.

Hi,

I'm a Canadian Pilot who just applied. Wondering what the pay and sked is like? More importantly, maintenance. Would it be possible to group days off together and commute back to the Great White North for (14-on, 7-off etc type deal?).

Any info appreciated.

The current commuting roster is 6 weeks on and 2 weeks off with flights from Lagos to LGW. You are on your own from there. As for maintenance, I hear it is good.
