FireFly Airlines

Hi guys,

Just wondering what the story is with FireFly Airlines in Malaysia. Are they hiring Captains? Whats the money like? Do they hire Ex-pats?

Cheers,

Poles

Any chance that anyone could post a link to Firefly HR/recruiting or post a link to their employment/pilot application page? What is the best way to apply with Firefly as an expat?

There's this thing called the internet.....

Sorry, couldn't resist.. If you google the company, it connects you to their website. They have a career page with an email address for HR. They operate a couple of ATRs.

LOL.......ok,I deserved that. I guess a better question would be: Does Firefly use an agency for expat recruitment or is all recruitment done directly through them? Also is all employment "permanent" or are there contracted jobs available?

No, it's really up to him if he wants to divulge any details.

From what I know: Keep away unless desperate, Many stories of Shafted Pilots told broken dreams about pay and conditions there.
You have been warned.

Seems like there is NO airline in SE Asia which has any sort of integrety.

What happened to good old fashioned honesty and sticking to agreements.

Soinds like Malasia is the same as Thailand.

"The lands of dissapointment".

I have given up on getting excited about anything that looks promising in Thailand. Avoid dissapointment that way.
