Air Arabia - all you need to know about it (threads merged)

[newscaster]

Both people inside and outside Bhoja are saying this at a Pak av forum.

[Hansol]

OK thats clearer now. I think we can add them to the long line of desperate airlines that coming knocking in the gulf. I wouldn't hold your breath on the chances of a tie up anytime soon.

[newscaster]

I like the way some people take things so personally, whats your issue with Arab carriers taking stake in others and others coming to them for help?

[Hansol]

No one is taking anything personally,I am just asking that you guys use some common sense. How many airlines do you think these guys have spoken to to an attempt to rescue their business. If you treat every contact as a certainty, and then publish it as such here, you will be sadly disappointed 99%of the time.
The Gulf airlines are seen as having money to burn and there is a steady stream of non Gulf operators who come calling. Lets revisit it in a months time and see if the deal has been done and annouced. I will be the first to apologise if you are right.

[Said_88]

Hey Folks, I've just finished my education. MEP (L) CPL IR .. I have no experiences on Jet aircrafts but i would be ready to Pay for type rating. So my question is, whether it makes sense to apply for a Job as Pilot @ Air Arabia or not?! I read that Air arabia is looking for pilots with experience ,that means with at least 1500 hours :rolleyes:
It would be nice to get a Job there. I was born and raised in germany and i'm still living in germany. But my parents are originally from morocco. So it would be a dream of mine to go back to my roots. :}
I guess I am gonna try to apply for a Job at Royal Air maroc ,too. Buuuut, i think it would be very hard behause i read that they prefer their own "ready entries".

[newscaster]

Talks between Air Arabia and Bhoja were held in Sharjah two weeks ago I guess they failed as the latter are now terminating services of all staff except upper management.

[dcoded]

Anyone in here with recent information regarding the reqruitment process for FOs?

Is the information provided by latestpilotjobs.com accurate?

How is it working for Air Arabia? Roasters, morale among crew etc.

Would like to hear from you who work there.
PM me if you want to!

Thanks in advance

[dcoded]

No one got any new info on air arabia?

Please
Thank you!

[bettigio]

Unfortunately Air Arabia reduced the salary and conditions for direct entry f/o.
New contracts are only 6months temporary and not sure about permanet after that.
There are hundreds of second officers in waiting list for the next few years to come.
Apart from that it's a lovely environment, 100% friendly. Just very hard work with our roster (100hr always).
Best of wishes.

[freeborn]

I heard that Air Arabia is about to start there Cargo Department.:D

Is this true if yes any contact info guys?:ugh:
Thanks:ok:

[delay256]

Any updates on when those second officers in the holding pool will be called to start line training?

[SilveR5]

Hello Everybody!

Could you please enlighten me about the class 1 medical for AA? Do they have their own specific requirements in order to be eligible for work at the company? Do I have to undergo the medical tests at AA's clinic or with a specific AME? Or is it just the same as any UAE GCAA class 1 medical with any approved AME?

Your input in this regard is highly valued.

Safe landings! :ok:

[SilveR5]

Come on guys! No more people around here are working for AA or what?!

That was only a little inquiry, wasn't it?


Cheers.

[MDT06]

100 hours a month = no time for pprune.

Mdt06

[bettigio]

If I'm writing on pprune it's only because I've reached my 900hrs/year :)
Cargo? Never heard. But if anything is worth doing, I'm sure AA will think about it.
We have our "own" clinic in Sharjah Airport. It's a standard UAE GCAA class 1 medical, straigh forward. There is only one exam (that I don't remember) that you can do in any hospital.
Every month we have new second officers MPL coming from Alpha Aviation, it's not an easy jump from cessna to Airbus, but they work and study hard.
Cheers!

[future-pilot]

Hi bettigio,
I'm from Italy and I'm thinking about joining alpha aviation.
I would like to ask you if you know anything about orders for new planes? Is air arabia looking to put an order for new a320s? I read on an article that Adel Ali, CEO of Air Arabia, is contemplating the a320neo, 737max and the Cseries.
Do you guys know anything about a new order?

[Captain Punishment]

bettigio, could you please post or PM the current direct entry FO salary please.

My experience is 3000 TT and 2750 A320 family

With the salary is life comfortable, able to afford car, housing and schooling for children etc?

Would appreciate your comments.

Thanks CP.

[bettigio]

I really don't know about new airplane order.
So far we received almost half of the 44 new airbus. In 2013 they will come with the new sharklets. Last delivery should be completed in 2016.
Airbus A320Neo, B737Max they will be around in 2016 as well. Still too early to make predictions, plus Sharjah airport is too small for all this aircraft.
Rumours says they will build a new terminal especially for Air Arabia, like Easyjet is doing in Europe.
Cheers.

[dcoded]

Is the order for the 737MAX finalized?

[dcoded]

Dear all Air Arabia employees, or some one who has some info:

What's the latest over there?
Any new hires?
How many FOs do they expect to hire per year?

What is the time for upgrade?

Thank you all very much!

[lonelypilot]

hey can u tell me hw much woud a aircraft technician would get paid in air arabia?

[SilveR5]

Receiving some useful answers for the queries in here is getting more difficult!
Unexpectedly, this is sending a sort of subtle messages to the chaps who are following up! It's raising more questions and getting rather worrying!:suspect:

Good luck busy AA guys and happy new year!

[dcoded]

Bumping this thread up, sorry.

[Ion-athan]

Hi guys

I saw that Arabia is hiring for SHJ base.... anyone has any feedback concerning their assessment?

Thanks

[Scanwing]

Just heard today ABY will only hire new F/O's from "their" flightschool hence no more experienced rated pilots. Can anyone in ABY confirm/deny that?

[Global01]

Hi champs,

i need Interview questions for non rated SOs and any other info regarding the process etc....

Thank you guys !

[jafarc]

hi guys

i have been trying to apply unsuccessfully from their website for the last 3 months

anybody gone through the same difficulties ? any solution ?

[EI-DAC]

New route Venice-Fez effective May 2nd, 4xw.

Rumors about possible switch from CUF to TRN operations.

[captain.weird]

Non-rated SO's? Didn't see that vacancy.. Or do you mean the MPL cadet programme with Alpha Aviation?

[Global01]

Yes non rated SO position (fresh graduate)... I need interview tech questions ... Is the ACE good enough to prepare ?

[davidcruzd]

Hello all!

I have just read AA is looking for A320 Captains and FOs for their bases Casablanca, Sharjah and Alexandria.

Unfortunely for me it seems that for Captain positions they ask previous TRE/TRI experience:(

[flyingmachine3]

are they also looking for fresh type rated pilots on A320

[flyingmachine3]

and i cant find any link plzz help me...:ugh:

[Global01]

Post you resume to [email protected]

Good luck Flyingmachine3

Guys !

I need interview tech questions , where can i find them ? Or just tell me what should i focus on and what should i expect ?

Thank you,

Global01

[Non rev]

No chance for non-typed guys huh! Stupid RJ!!!

[Mr. R]

Global1 can you confirm if they are accepting applications for SO?? I know a few fresh graduates with Jordanian fATPLs looking for SO jobs if true that would be very helpful. It could be for Alpha Aviation instead if I'm not mistaken

[bettigio]

Here I am,
Air Arabia is always looking for pilots (FO, CPT). If you have no experience (0 hrs) only with Alpha Aviation MPL programme. If you're willing to pay 700 THOUSAND AED with a salary of 5000 AED to start, welcome. At least you'll get 1500 hrs and your full ATPL...and that's according to your performace, it's not garantee.
General questions from ACE book and systems questions from smartcockpit or cockpit4u, don't remember. Know by heart how to calculate green dot speed. Simulator engine failure V1, raw data VOR or ILS, manual flight, full stop landing 20 min session max.
In the last couple years the salary of the new joiners with experience was decreased , the house allowance reduced by 5000 AED per month and others benefits taken away. If you're second officer no comments.
Bonus the more you fly, the less you get. Our new motto is PAY LESS FLY MORE :)
I was really proud to work here when I joined, but all of this cutting costs just makes me sad...but the future is always brighter :) Cheers

[dcoded]

Bumping this up.

Why is it always so quiet in this thread?
It is still a big carrier in the ME.

What is the latest in Air Arabia?

[nitrowired]

It is very simple. none of us have enough time to complain. just work, sleep and S**T.
100 hours a month is standart. so whatever free time you have, you spend it with your family or friends. so no time to read pprune.

[dcoded]

Hello.
Thanks for your reply in the Air Arabia thread.

May I ask if you are working as a commander of FO?

Do you have any lay overs on your trips?

If you say you fly close to 100hrs/ month, wouldn't you be maxed out in the duty time within 10months? What happens the last two months of the year?

Thanks for your time

[On the go]

Hello everyone. I am new to this forum.....can anyone share the info regarding selection process in AA. I have assessment coming up next month but hardly know what to expect specially the written exam etc. good luck to all.
Cheers

[FlyerJoe]

Hi,

I have just stared looking at the MPL Scheme, however you have to pay the training fees all yourself and no loan seems available unlike the BBVA at oaa etc.

Can anyone who might have already commenced training give any advice on how to acquire the funding?

Greatly Appreciated

Flyerjoe

[jimmyg]

Reduced salary, tough duty rosters, high cost of living. :confused:

Don't forget to grab your own water as you pass by the dispatch desk as none is provided onboard.

One to steer well clear of.

[MD83FO]

Can you guys bid for daytime flying only?
Would rather fly 6 sectors daytime.

[smart123]

There are layovers to DAC, CGP & KTM. So, in principle, you would be back home 98% of your roster. Very friendly place.

[Agent47]

Hi guys , I just got the offer letter for air arabia as a cabin crew. Now the salary package was not quite impressive but they say that I can make money on my number of flying hours. Can anyone tell me how many hours the cabin crew flys a month ? And can we ask for more hours ? What's the medical test they have before hiring you in even after they give the offer letter ?

[fernandeztv]

Can anyone tell me how many hours the cabin crew flys a month ? And can we ask for more hours ?On an average cabin crew fly about 100+ hours. ...and yes you do have an option of making yourself available for flying on your OFF day ...if its not your legal OFF. ;)



PS: cabin crew fly a LOT....

[fernandeztv]

Can you guys bid for daytime flying only?
Would rather fly 6 sectors daytime.

currently we don't do 6 sectors a day! maximum is 4 but mostly its 2 sectors a day.

I highly doubt you will be able to do daytime flying only. maybe you can swap with your fellow colleagues but it might not always work out due to legality issues.

[MD83FO]

thanks fernandez does that mean you get to see the sunrise quite often?
thats why i left the gulf months ago and i still can't get a continuous night sleep
looking for gigs where passengers don't fly at night.

[QaisPilot]

hey guys, im thinking of going through their MPL program but im little afraid of the Selection Assessment, does any body have any useful information about it, specially about the aptitude tests and the panel interview ? .

[airborneksa]

:=Avoid this setup completely. Cabin Crew are doing 60-80 hours per month and total salary does not even cover decent accommodation, as it not provided by the company. Most of cabin crew are living in sharing accommodation in some cases 4 people in 2 bedroom apartments. Deposit for accommodation to be paid by your self, which will eat away big chunk of your salaries or invest your savings. Sectors India, bangladesh, pakistan etc, mainly low paid construction workers flying and extremely hard work, Expect to clean lavatories at least 6 times a day with filth all over the place. Management does not care about well being of cabin crew, people within the company are disgruntled with conditions. All shots are being called by M.J. (who has complete disregard for everyone and pretends to be the brain behind success of Air Arabia, Mr. Nobody idiot). I know this as i had my very good friend working there, now she works for Etihad but before she left MJ decided not to honor the terms of contract signed. Avoid AA and avoid Idiot MJ:=:=

[AVIATION REFUGEE]

at 100 h/month, you get busted soon, and what then?
:ooh:

[MD83FO]

is the 6/2 roster implemented? im getting offers with condition improvements.

[Nick 1]

Any info regarding AA Maroc ? Roster , base etc...
There is any bond for type rated captain ? Heard this rumor.
Tks..

[airborneksa]

They are known to keep changing terms and duration of contract. 6/2 is wat they say now but will they honor it? :ugh:

[Kenai]

at 100 h/month, you get busted soon, and what then?
:ooh:

Then you get restricted on the 900 hrs in a year rule and you roster shows OFF the whole month ;) you get paid yes ...just no flying or duty pay.

(This could be different for those on temporary contract...what i say holds good only for those on permanent contract!)

is the 6/2 roster implemented? im getting offers with condition improvements.

6/2 ? no idea about it...maybe being offered to new joiners but as of now nothing to existing folks.

[gottofly]

Can someone advise how many hours is a Captain flying per month and on average,what would he take home with current pay?

Can you stay in Dubai and still get housing allowance or has the rule changed recently and one has to stay in Sharjah to get the same?

Thanks in advance.

[MohammedSalman]

So I'm planning to join the AA MPL course in September.
Anyone else?

[Kenai]

Can you stay in Dubai and still get housing allowance or has the rule changed recently and one has to stay in Sharjah to get the same?
Yes...a bulk of the pilots stay in DXB (mostly Mirdiff or Silicon oasis areas)
however beware...recently they made Ras Al khaima...a "home base" which means you will be rostered for flights out of RAK as well...and your check in is at RAK ops.

Expect to fly 95 to 100 hrs a month due to current shortages. Average salary for capt might be around 48 to 55K including housing, transport, uniform etc...depends on how much you fly.

[gottofly]

Thanks Kenai for the heads up.
I have stayed in DXB many times but don't have an idea about RAK.
Will try to find out more details and make a calculated decision ......if they offer me a job

[valKilmer3481]

Hi folks, was many year captain on BizJets, now flying A 320 as FO, got post from AA to fill out forms, they are desperate to hire.
Anybody scheduled for interview or just recently did it?
Could you please send me some info about interview, working conditions, posibility about DirectEntryCaptain, roster (do they offer 4-6 weeks on and then 1or 2 weeks off?)
Any information welcome, thanks

[SheepPilot]

Hi everyone,

Has anyone done the Air Arabia training programme with Alpha Aviation?

If so could you please tell me how you got on and how much you spent on the course?

And if you did get the magical 1500hrs that they promise?

I'm looking to apply and would like some insider information.

Thanks,

Sheep

[mo320777]

Dear
Can anyone tell me the recent salaries for first officers (not alpha)with 1000 hrs on type ..?
detailed info is highly appreciated.
Best regards

[youli320]

Not Enough ,you will be a slave and forget about upgrade.:=:ugh:

[colo18]

Hello guys

It seems the link for the applications is under maintenance and you are unable to send your CV or apply online.

Anyone knows if they are still hiring? If so, how is the process and what I can expect?

Appreciate any info from actual AA pilots.

Thanks in advance

[FlightPilot]

As far as I know they're focused on hiring Captain's only. Most of the recruitment now comes in from their partner flight training school. So that's allot of F.O's to fill the slots.

[Angel101]

Hey guys,

I received an invitation for a Cabin Crew position for AA, can anyone tell me how much is the salary they are giving? and if they are providing accommodation? I heard that AA is a low-cost Airline based in SHJ, so i think salary would be less? right? can anyone help me? :O

[bravehawk461]

Hi! Just asking the AA pilots. Is Capt Yasser Alharmi the Chief Pilot of AA? If he is, is the spelling correct, need it for my application. Thanks.

[Ethiopia]

New destination for Air Arabia:

Air Arabia to fly to Tbilisi (http://aviationtribune.com/airlines/middle-east/item/1643-air-arabia-to-fly-tbilisi)

[safeflyer2]

Hi Guys, I am considering joining AA as a Capt and would be grateful for some info.
1. I gather you are flying close to 100 hrs a month. Does it get very tiring? Do you get adequate rest between flights to recuperate?

2. How many days off do you get in a month? (Mandatory and otherwise).


3. Do you have any interline agreements for ZED travel?


4. How is the flying environment? Any feeling of someone looking over your shoulder all the time?? Read somewhere on the thread that there have been instances of Captains being downgraded to F/O. Any truth in that?


5. Finally, is living in Sharjah a possible option and is it similar to living in Dubai?

[radical_100]

@safeflyer2, Did you end up getting a call or joining G9? Any inputs?

[radical_100]

@ituribushbaby :ok: Thank you

How expensive is living in Sharjah/Dubai - regular accommodation for two?

7-10 Offs a month is not too bad, can they be taken together or so - to make that trip back home? (FDTL allowing, of course)

[nitrowired]

How expensive is living in Sharjah/Dubai - regular accommodation for two?
Check dubizzle.com for the accommodation. Depends on your needs and will to drive prices vary a lot.

7-10 Offs a month is not too bad, can they be taken together or so - to make that trip back home? (FDTL allowing, of course)
You can't pair them unless you take annual leave I which case they are added 5 days to your leave. Some new options like 6/2 on/off seems to work for some. Around here thinks can be negotiated a bit.

Depending what deal you get its not bad. It all depends on your expectations and options elsewhere. It's my 7th year and probably will stick for a while still. However I have seen many come and go

[Cabincrewlover]

Can any one tell me whats next after AirArabia final interview?? The medical process and everything thank you!!!@

[flyer32]

Hey Guys!
I have an Indian CPL/IR multi-engine licence,recently got selected for air arabia MPL program for second officer position,how much is the training time?,I have read some of your reviews, should i be worried?. Honest answers needed!!

[Southpole]

Living in Sharjah is really a pain the a** if you are not used to live in ****ty places... I went to air Arabia offices time ago for the interview and the first impression was terrible. I do not know why, but I was expecting the typical extra new, extra clean extra big building... And of course I couldn't believe where I was once I got there... Small, dirty, furniture aged middle 60s, looked they were just moving in with lot of packages in the corridors and in the offices but it was not! I was just expecting to be bitten by a rat..
For the written test they did not have enough computers for everyone (we were 5..) so they tried to look for some extra laptop... I do not need and Alienware but for god sake some buttons were missing and the touchpad was working too bad..
Having a look around, I just had a bad feeling, offices are close to the airport.

I couldn't go and live there, it is just 30 min away from Dubai but it looks like it is 1000 years behind..

It was not for me. I did not take it.
Good luck

[100knots]

hi all,

I'm considering commuting from casa to the Iberian peninsula on the 3 weeks on 1 week off contract. (A320 DEC)
so could someone let me know if its possible to go home on your days off during the 3 weeks. (2 plus in a row)
how's the flying?

any other pertinent thoughts or advice?

thanks

[Unavailable]

Any chance of changing base for a FO From Sharjah to Morocco?
Thank you

Can some one please PM the type rated tech exam for assessment . I would appreciate your time and an effort. Thanks n happy landingds:=

[dieana]

Hi Guys, I´m looking for some information about the application page since in its career page is down.

Thanks.

[QaisPilot]

hi guys ive heared that they improved the contracts for F\Os ? any idea about the increment in the salary ?

[Tibus]

Hi Guys!

Does someone know if AA hire freshly A320 type rated pilots with less than 1000Hrs TT?

Thanks in advance for your help!

[Unavailable]

They only hire captains. I don't think you have a chance there.

[CaptainProp]

Just got mass email from agency. 6 month contract, €7.800 all inclusive, and before tax in your home country I guess? 9 days off, 6 in a row.

This industry is really turning in to an all low cost, low pay, low life industry.

CP

[Alloy]

I just got the same mass email, are they really going to get takers with those terms on a temporary contract? Personally I can't see why anyone would be interested who meets their stipulated criteria.

[flying headbutt]

I have a hunch the agencies are in cahoots in the race to the bottom....who knows what they are skimming off the top. They are part of the problem for sure and my dealings with them has led me to firmly believe they are TOTALLY USELESS and couldn't give a flying fig about you. Much better to try and deal direct.

[Alloy]

The agencies are defiantly out for themselves and yes, I agree, dealing direct is far better if given the choice.

[gtaflyer]

What's the name of the agency or send link thx

[Luibar]

Try Rishworth. They are advertising on their website for Casablanca.

[Luibar]

just for curiosity, is there any layovers at Air Arabia Sharjah?

[DCS99]

Chittagong I heard was the only one.

https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attractions-g319837-Activities-Chittagong_City_Chittagong_Division.html

Thank me later.

[axialflow]

Luibar,

ABY layovers: Dhaka, Chittagong, Kathmandu, Trivandrum (flight deck crew only ), maybe Colombo ?

I'm sure I missing out one or two more cities.

Ax

[Luibar]

axialflow,

Thanks for the information. Hopefully the hotels are ok.
Just asked because I see that some of the flights are quite long.

[pfvspnf]

How much is the layover allowance at ABY? Is it just night stops ? Hotels ok ?

[Iver]

On average, how many Air Arabia pilots get picked off by the ME3 per year?

[Luibar]

What kind of travel benefits/agreement do you have at Air Arabia? Is it only myidtravel or do you have some arrangements like Flydubai where they have standby business class?

[bluelearjetdriver]

Time to fire up this thread again

I am a 320 Captain (7500 total time inclusive on 2000hrs command) living in Dubai, working for the dark side, due well south of Sharjah. For personal reasons/circumstances I am considering AA.

I have been invited for a DEC interview, with the intention of going on to the 6/2 contract. Up to date information is very hard to come by (I have asked AA directly but no banana), so here are my questions:
1) Basic salary considering my experience (I realise they have a salary scale according to experience)
2) Flight Pay (realise it is complicated due to the various rates paid)
3) Education Allowance (I believe it is AED40k per child). Can it be used outside of the UAE?
4) Other allowances including housing/transport/uniform (I believe the total for these is AED174k)
5) Medical insurance. Is it any good? I don't need maternity cover....
6) AND Finally working a mix of days and nights and flying, say 90 hours in a month, what is the net salary EXCLUDING the fixed allowances every month?


Oh, and any ideas as to what a DEC interview entails?

Please feel free to PM me if you don't want to disclose the information publicly.

[Luibar]

Is there restriction in where Air Arabia pilots have to live, or you is up to you?
In another words, can you live in Dubai or RAK instead of Sharjah?

[Hansol]

What is the current situation ? I can see them lowering terms and doing the usual "we only offer 6 months"

[kinnar.patel]

what are the layovers at Air Arabia lately..How do they cover Far Europe destinations like Kiev,Moscow,SJJ,Nairobi?? Are these not layovers as they are all 5+hrs flying time one way.

[a3twenty]

Air arabia is offering temporary contracts for captains,
stating that there is a high chance of it being converted into a permanent contract by the end of this year. Have they done this in the past or will I be job hunting again at the end of the 6 month stint ? Any info will be appreciated.

I don’t know about the past but AA has confirmed growth plans with 3 more A320’s this year and 5 A321’s next so Captains are a high priority.

38,500 AED including housing, transport & uniform (for permanent contract)

2) Flight Pay (realise it is complicated due to the various rates paid)

yes bit complicated as there are slabs and night pay, but expect around AED 20,000 for 80 hr roster

3) Education Allowance (I believe it is AED40k per child). Can it be used outside of the UAE?

120k total for 3 kids, 40k per kid...can be used outside UAE but only 80%

4) Other allowances including housing/transport/uniform (I believe the total for these is AED174k)

correct. But I added above in basic in point # 1

5) Medical insurance. Is it any good? I don't need maternity cover....

not so good but manageable

6) AND Finally working a mix of days and nights and flying, say 90 hours in a month, what is the net salary EXCLUDING the fixed allowances every month?

net salary for 90 hours INCLUDING everything for your experience will be around 60k, increases by another 7k once u pass 3000pic on type

Oh, and any ideas as to what a DEC interview entails?

day1 written exam, psychometric test and personal interview. Day 2 sim check (40mins, basic)

Please feel free to PM me if you don't want to disclose the information publicly.

Apparently Air Arabia is recruiting Captains to Sharjah (according to SIGMA). Any big expansion expected soon?

[kenwaters]

Hi

need some info on the captain assessment for Air Arabia, how hard or easy is the tech exam?

[nitrowired]

Apparently Air Arabia is recruiting Captains to Sharjah (according to SIGMA). Any big expansion expected soon?
no expansion beyond extra 6 321's that will come next year. But we are always understaffed and summer is particulary tight for the rostering. Check what kind of contract is on offer cause there seems to be more than few different options depending who you talk to.

[a32O]

Hi guys!

Do the company really need captain at the moment? I've tried to apply, but no response, mb my pic experience not enough(~1100).

Another question, what is the salary difference between full time and commuting contact(6/2)?

For full time real salary around 15-16k usd? Right?

[Hansol]

Does AA offer a commuting contract?

[LIPS Support]

Hi all,

Can someone please provide me with the Loss of License package that AA contractually guarantees to their pilots in the event of long-term sickness or termination for medical reasons? We have a product for $86 / month with the following benefits that may be of interest to AA pilots, depending on what they're already provided:

UNDERWRITTEN by Lloyd’s of London, the oldest, largest insurer and reinsurer in the world.

$6,800 (AED 25,000) per month
Payable for the first five years of medical disability.
No maximum age cut-off to join.
No medical exam required.
Covered to the day before your 65th birthday.
You keep your cover when you change airlines.
Membership in the Baymac Group included in your monthly payment which gives you access to top-ups for the basic plan, health insurance, life insurance and free legal consultations.

Hi everybody!
Does anybody know if Air Arabia is still looking for captains for their Abu Dhabi base. And what's the salary?

Thank you!

Gotta love an optimist!
