:=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:=:=

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

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

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

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

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!)

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

Website down
 

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

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.

Air Arabia Cabin Crew Salary & Benefits
 

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

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.

New destination for Air Arabia:

Air Arabia to fly to Tbilisi

Hi
 

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?
