They all suffer, especially BBJ owners.

War, Ruble exchange rate, sanctions and oil price: the russian/ukraine market is going to hell, as anyone with experience on the field can confirm.
Charter market dying and many owners selling their toys.

As for Global Jet, may I suggest you guys to shoot a little bit lower? Not really one of the most accessible companies around...

By the way if you have an interview with this nice company be prepared to pay for your tickets , hotel (if necessary) then don't expect an answer from them ..

That is without a doubt statistically relevant and a clear example of the currently blooming economy in Ukraine and Russia.

But hell, after all, what do we know, with only 80% of our fleet based between Kiev and Moscow.

Not much compared to your three months 737 holiday charter experience in Europe, but still.

Interview expenses?

Hi all,

I was offered an interview for GlobalJet Lux but they are very cagey about saying too much (Anything actually!), before the interview. Now I find out they expect me to pay for my travel and hotac for said interview.

Anyone on here like to pm me and tell me what they are like to work for? This is not a good start.....are they this tight in other areas of the operation??

They are usually pretty good at paying for travel, hotac, and other expenses. Dunno about flight crew though.

Not employed there (apparently that's a good thing!) - basically everyone I know or are aware off seems to be looking elsewhere. Generally the complaints are down to unstable rostering stability and total lack of appreciation of crew and staff. Further everybody seems to mention the crazy owner/chief pilot as utterly incompetent and out of his mind. Just transmitting the message received from multiple sources. Good luck.
