So new captains will not fly nights to Russia or moons on season in India ? That is written down the at they will not be doing this till they have experience? I thought DECs were experienced? If the company has so many FOs with experience why are they now hiring DECs? It looks like if you join as an FO you will never upgrade in flydubai. So you are now assured of 3 preferred days off a month?

Because I know how much you love flydubai. I want to highlight all the rubbish you talk about pro company.At the end of the day it is a dangerous airline. It has had 1 hull loss and nearly a second in its 12 year history. I want to highlight this to new guys. My best advise is to pick up the phone of someone you know and call a current flydubai pilot. None of my friends in flydubai recommend joining. They have learned nothing from their mistakes in FZ.

Yes new captains will still fly these routes but less so because high seniority pilots will share the load. New captains will not be as fatigued by flying a lot of night duties. It's not written down, it's part of the fair assignment roster which was implemented. FO upgrades will start soon and you will upgrade in time.
Days off is seniority based so you're not guaranteed them. It feels as if you're clutching at straws here.. 🤦🏼♂️

BS… FZ is good job. Been here for a couple years, no complains at all. My advice to anyone willing to come to middle east is, beware that rules and benefits are always changing, bear in mind no Unions, associations whatsoever, if you put this in your head, you ll be happy here, if not, you gonna end up on social media trying to blame the company for your unhappiness.

Hi all,
Great to see some recruitment happening around the world. I am a redundant 737 left seat driver.
Applied for DEC and within 5 hours invite to aptitude tests. 10 mins after submitting aptitude test invite to Video Interview.
I would much appreciate some information on the questions asked during video interview.
Many thanks (Look forward to shouting you a drink)
