Some interesting rumors about this, I don't think that it will be staying in the mainline.

Gaca Atpl
 

Hey,

As a joining F/O on 777 with a ICAO atpl, what is the latest scenario with the licensing in Sauida currently. Will i be flying on a Cpl or they will give me direct conversion to the Gaca Atpl without any exams?

Regards

Regarding the B748: it is a special case because the Royal Flight will introduce 2 B748 intercontinental's. Saudia normally operate a fleet of similar aircraft outside of the Royal fleet for the purposes of keeping crews current, maintenance current, spare parts etc available. Let's see what happens, it does seem to be an aircraft which has presented the company with very major technical problems though.

Aloha and polax52 sent you both PM, Mutt thanks for your response.

Upcoming interview schedule?
 

Does anyone know what the schedule is for upcoming interviews/assessments? How many times per month?

Thanks.

What are the travel perks for family/relatives/friends? Is there any skyteam perks ?

For long term employees the travel concessions are excellent, but for family members you get 1 confirmed ticket home to domicile plus 1 standby ticket to nearest SVA station.

Crew also get 1 ticket per month.

Thats it, nothing for parents, nothing for friends.

Mutt, also the SED tickets for family which I use often.

Guiones

Yeah nothing for family. For parents ID50 tickets and nothing else.
Just confirmed with HR.

If this is correct, then you are getting lower benefits than the rest of the employees.

Hi everybody.
what about travel benefits for spouse and kids?
do they travel on business or economy?
thanks.

On SV, as mutt mentioned - only for you and eligible dependends (spouse and kids in KSA) one yearly free confirmed domicile (to the nearest SV station on SV and the remaining segment on other airlines), and one free standby to any SV station. Free means you pay airport taxes.
On the other hand, for you and your eligible relatives (spouse, kids under 24, parents) after six months of service you have unlimited ZED travels on other airlines (not on SV though) worldwide via myidtravel according to agreements.

From which Air France has disappeared from as of today!!! What happened to SKYTEAM?

I've noticed too. Wondering if this is single AF issue or SV-AF issue...

I also found that AF domestic/European flights marketed as EY codeshare, and not SV codeshare anymore.

Hi, North Beduin ,
If I understood it correctly, my family would have one free SBy ticket on SV network per year and after that can we purchase further sby tickets on SV or that's it?

You can buy confirmed ID50 and standby ID75 on SV depending on your seniority.
But this discount (50% or 75%) is calculated from high fares which makes the price you pay very unattractive when comparing with ZED on other airlines.

Lorbak,

You, Spouse, Kids,

= 1 free positive space ticket home per year in First (capt), In business (FO).
+ 1 space available economy on SVA
+ Zed fare (space available) Unlimited
+ ID50 (positive) and ID75 (space available) on SVA, Unlimited

You only,

= 1 ticket per month positive space. Economy, but upgradable.


Any remaining family, parents, parents inlaw, siblings, friends, pets, etc

= ZERO

Thanks much now is much more clear

Still available through a CPO. Looks like a technical issue:ooh:
