I sent you an email to your private mail,did you get it?

Saudia Medical
 

Hi,

Does anyone know any details of the pre hire (Interview) Medical for Saudia? I heard GACA follows the FAA guidelines. Does Saudia accept a waiver for "Defective Color Vision" from the FAA????

Thanks,

TRVLN'

Your FAA medical and pre-hire medical are completely different things. Unfortunately the only way that you are going to find out if they accept the deficiency is to do the pre employment medical.

Anybody been called yet for the 19th-26th January interviews in Athens?I was shortlisted and asked if I can attend but have not heard anything yet from HR:ugh:

What is the payscale like for Saudi?

Depends upon the fleet. Saudia Aircraft are designated into 4 groups; A thru D.

Basically, most expats are hired into group "C" (A320) or "D" (Widebody). Everyone is paid in SAR, but the SAR/USD rates are fixed against each other. This means that the base salary for "C" is around $8500/month, and the base for "D" is $9500/month. Keep it in mind that these numbers are "Base Salary" only. There is additional money paid for virtually everything.

Saudi
 

Hi i am first officer at Boeing 777 . I wanted to work in Saudi but wanted to know about the overall working conditions and staff benefits
Thanks in advance

If you are already flying the B777, then stay where you are, at least that way you will become a Captain someday.

Are they currently hiring on the 777
 

Dear all,

I would like to know if Saudi Arabian Airlines is currently hiring on the 777. I am type rated and current and would like to know what is the actual pay scale for Capt and FO. Is it true that you can have up to 6 days off in a row every month? How is the accommodation provided? What is the school allowance, medical insurance, overtime, etc etc.
I went through the different posts but there is no updated information. Are there any opportunities for upgrade or transfer for expats. What are the destinations of the 777 fleet.
Any information would be highly appreciated . Thanks .

Yes..
base for "D" is $9500/month.... productivity, overtime and hourly allowance on top
5 days off... with duty travel ticket on network
Compound accommodation, free, with free utilities
school $8,000 per year, usually not enough for top schools
medical for you and family, higher level for you, if US national, then its done through US insurance company
Insurance for loss of license and life included
Domestic, Middle East, Asia, UK, Canada and JFK/IAD/LAX
Having a rating removes the bond.

Good to see you are still "on the job". Ive been retired 18 months and enjoying life, or trying too. in the US.

Hi all...
I am a Saudia retired pilot. I understand there is a new website where employees and retirees can get other airline non-rev tickets...I can get to the website, but can't figure out how to register and get a username/password. Can anyone out there help me with this info? Sam

Unfortunately Sam I don't believe that you can access it as it is linked to and accessed from an internal website tied to the employees personal information in the SAP system.
I would suggest that you contact HR LON and ask them if there is a generic access for retirees.

tickets
 

Hi Sam.
i think you retired before the SAP system. Mike Davids from SV-JFK , now retired, was trying to work it out. send him an email.

Thanks to both of you! Sam

Just a word of caution for guys wishing to come into Saudia Non-type rated as Captain, the failure rate recently has been 100% or very near. The training system does not appear to be geared up to getting non-type rated guys up to the standard required by GACA.

F/O no problem.
