Alpha Star Aviation
 

I have started a thread on this subject on T of E and Biz Jets with no response.
Does anybody know anything about this mob?
Vacancies for A340, 320& BBJ VVIP drivers, based RUH 2 on / 1 off.
Cheers Stig.

Considering their owners, I'm expecting this company to do well, quite possible at the expense of NASJets........ but apart from that, i dont know their terms or conditions, and yes they do have the aircraft.

Thanks Mutt!
perhaps we'll get some input from somebody close to the company?
Stig

Other than the posted adds on the websites. they are looking for helicopter pilots and mechanics (S-92,S-70i) in specific. they held interviews in Dubai last week.

and they need...
 

A340 Captain, A320 Captains and F/O's, and ATR 42 pilots + F/A's

Anyone know the conditions?
Pay
Offdays
Extras
Etc.....

Regards,

slow response..
 

I was interviewed by Alpha Star on the 20 April. Non a word since then. Does anyone else have the same experience ? Did anyone get the contact details of the ex-Lufthansa guy ? PM would be most welcome, thanks and all the best.

I have gotten a job at alpha star and their salary is SAR4500. How is that offer good or bad according to the riyadh living standards?

4500 SAR? As a pilot? What, per flight day?

Minimum SAR 20000 for any type of flying. Plus accommodation, Transportation, Medical, etc.

Assuming you got a job as a Flight Attendant, its poor for a non scheduled VIP operation and compares to what Air Atlanta are paying Flight Attendants.

SAR4500 per month as an aircraft technician. Accommodation is 3 basic salaries a yr. Hows the leaving expenses in riyadh?

Walk far far away...............

But why, Mutt?

I`m asking because I used to work for them (ACMI, AT45) and I really thinking about (AT46 and, possibly, upgade to jet). In my opinion they doing well...

As about living conditions - compound shall be provided with no doubt, it is too hard to live in KSA outside one...

I'm sure that they will do very well, even following the recent death, however, the question was about a salary of SAR4500 per month with an annual housing allowance of 13,500....

Would you work for that sort of money as an expat?

Mutt

Mutt,

got it. About accommodation - fully agree (it is stated in second part of my previous message)))

Just thinking about employement and for me they seems to be good choise. But maybe I don`t know something...

ATR FO
 

El Sol, any chance for an ATR FO of getting an interview?

Igel,

So the company is doing well....? They do have Airbus a319, 320 n 340. I am definately interested in getting the ratings for those planes. Mutt, maybe thats why the salary issue is slightly being ignored!! With sar7000 for starters until after 3 months probation then they up the salary, is that a bad deal?

was just wondering if anyone had recently acquired a contract with Alpha Star, only to not receive a start date or any more information?
I received a job offer contract from them on April 30th, which I signed & sent back on May 4th...
I have emailed to try & get information on my visa & start date I never get a reply!?!

any thoughts?

cheers!

Check your PM:)

Good morning All,

Please, is any of you working for Star Alpha Aviation based in Riyadh>
It seems like there is a problem with communication in this company

I had an interview few months ago,
Heard nothing since and then suddently email to send copy of passport and previous employee.

And again nothing since.

Anybody can help here?? Please?

How much do Alpha Star Aviation Services employees make?

Alpha Star Aviation Services employees earn an average of $98,358, ranging from $72,309 at the 25th percentile to $117,524 at the 75th percentile, with top earners (the top 10%) earning more than $146,235. Compensation is derived from fewer than 20 profiles, including base salary, equity and bonus.

For your reference.....

I have been working at Riyadh for 4 years....the cost living is not too expensive. Quite normal.

Anyway, for the SAR 4500/ month is too small, but if you as a Mechanic with no licenses and less than 5 years experiences, it will be better.
As an Engineer, SAR 18k-20k is a normal price with Compound and Transport provided.
