Kingfisher Experiences

I`m a contract captain on the ATR & am currently planning to join kingfisher (contractair) before the end of this year. The security clearance is in the process !

Is there anybody here who works for Kingfisher that can shed any light on the current conditions there. I`d like to know what I`m getting myself & my girlfriend into.

Any info like example rosters, the low down on staff travel etc

Also, any expats who can share their experience with regards to their spouses/girl/boy friends, can they get work over in india or is the visa a problem?

Word is, have a serious think about this. The tax situation is rearing it's head and a lot of crews are looking to run from India ASAP

dont think so mate
i disagree
maybe this is a case of someone & i understand that
he/she got frustrated of the "indian way" of doing things here
which are very very laid back, and overloaded of papper work
& those phone calls that come back after days of dialing up
& could not afford to wait certain time for his money to paid back
so far i havent met a single expat mad or angry at the airline
in fact more & more are coming every month to join

the food issue, i also disagree, i eat every day undercut or
any type of seafood, been here for long now & not sick once

anyway its my exp here, very happy

if you get inside the indian LOOP, youll be ok
which is fly ,
dont care about anything else you see on the roads
make money & take holidays off to relax even more

cheers
