I have been offered interviews at the same time, on the same day and have to choose one, as there are no other days availible.

So what you choose monarch Or Air Atlanta, which is the best and why??

cheers for any help

Can't you change the date? AAE should be quite flexible.;)

both as bad as each other really, but out of the two, monarch will at least pay you.

looks like you are aware of the conditions with AAE, can you please inform us of the salary, duty hour allowance and bar comission within that airline ?

Give Air Atlanta a ring, there wont be a problem changing your assessment day, as we have loads of them going on. Don't miss out, you might regret it..

AAE salary now (I believe) is just over £9000, I was paid £8750 when I was still working there. They have cut the Hourly allowance from £2.10 to less, how much exactly not sure.

Bar comission is very bad as you will mostly do SFB and bar is free on those flights (and pax surely use it as much as possible), duty free doesn't sell well. It is better on short haul, but you work so much harder! Also they take descrepancies out and usually they are quite impressive (or depressive
:confused: ).

I would probably go for Monarch. I know someone who left AAE to join Monarch and they love it there.

But of course it depends on what you are after?

hi all, i worked for AAE for last season. its was ok to start with but by the end just fed up with delays and tec aircraft!!

the money was £8750 for main crew, £11,000 bar grades flight pay was £2.10 i think.

if i had the choice between the two i would go to Monarch, much better airline, better aircraft, better routes

so to give you all the bad points, but its best ya know

:ok:
