GO FAR FROM THEM

...but if you have to,

money is only a whisker better for FOs at TR from 01 Nov.when the new package commences. Devil is in the detail.

Career move: no brainer, Jet*.

Upgrade: both about the same time.

Training: Jet*

Roster: TR starts various commuting options from 01 Nov.

Many who were going to jet* are now in two minds unless Jet* can improve rosters, offer definite fleet upgrades and offer FIRM staff travel. Correct me if i'm wrong, but their staff travel is all STBY, which doesn't really suit expats like us who want to fly our families to/from Europe etc.

Which one?

Can anyone from TR provide more insight in the new T&Cs come 1st Nov.

And how much better is MI compared to TR or 3k?

Thank you for sharing.

MI does not hire FOs now. If I remembered correctly the last intake of FOs was in 2007 or 08. All of their new hire FOs now are cadets hired by SQ.

Hi all,

I have a few questions about Jetstar Asia A330 FO.

- What's the normal routes for A330?
- Is the pay for FO different between A320 and A330 fleet?
- What's the average take home per month for A330 FO?
- What's the average hrs. do you work per month?
- Any chance for upgrade and is the policy the same for 320 and 330?

quite a few questions but I did not find much info. about A330 FO position recently. Any answer will be much appreciated.

Thanks

Choices...

The right choice is the one that you are happy with!

Each to their own on who prefers which. Tiger defo the best for faster upgrade, but only operate 320's. If you want to stick around fly something bigger then the star. Then there is Scoot or Air Asia.

So many options opening. It depends on where you want to live, sort that out first then go looking.

Good luck.

You would earn more as a flight attendant than become a FO for AirAsia.
