Air Atlanta only really works if you're a retired KLM or Lufthansa captain on a king's ransom pension and/or have a business on the side that pulls in loads of money and requires your time.
Then you can do the 'worldwide' contract where you tell Air Atlanta when you can be bothered to roll of out of bed and do a spot of flying, because you miss the craic, and the adventure.
Otherwise, steer well clear, and don't bother. The money is sh!te. It's about half of what it should be in terms of pay, like the poster above said.

New terms
So, new terms and choice of roster patterns have been announced a few weeks ago for Air Atlanta by the agencies.
The roster patterns are known (21/14, 21/21, 20/10) and apparently no more worldwide option. But what about the new terms, is it increased pay, better or the introduction of any benefit, or just the just the roster patterns?

Oh they are still going, then? Interesting.
Is the cancerous, Scandinavian nepotism, still rife? It was blatant 20 years ago.
I told them to stick it after 12 months. They didn't get any flying out of me.

Hi Ladies and Gents,
Is anyone that attended the AAI selection day in the Netherlands recently able to provide some fresh feedback? Despite all the hate around in PPRuNe I still think they can be a good gig.
Any info will be much appreciated, feel free to reach out via DM.

Don’t worry about all the negative stuff, there’s good hours to be made on the most beautiful machine ever. You can rack up some time and then move on. They’re always looking for people, because obviously many people leave. I don’t have the latest recruitment material but I could ask around, I think further up in the thread they have some material, I think it’s a scenario around Amsterdam, it’s quite easy and relaxed.
You’ll be flying with some very nice people here in AA, you’ll enjoy the colleagues. The routes are really great, you’ll end up in places you could have never imagined going to and the Ol’ Queen is a beautiful piece of machinery.
But ultimately you’ll end up hating the place, it’s inevitable, the Icelandic bosses will make sure of it, hahahah. So rack up them hours and run away.
