No chances for present FOs for command? Guess they really need Capts so urgently that FO upgrades may feel too long a wait? Assuming there are already a number of guys who have met the minimum requirements?

Contract

Hi all

Anyone else waiting for a contract. My mmpi results were completed a week ago, but I still haven't heard anything. The local guy has his contract, so maybe its due to needing a work permit and takes more time? Anyone in the same position?

Cheers!

Thanks for your update.

Consequently Scoot has found a supply of captains and it seems they have no plans to recruit 787 DEC in the near future, or is it just temporary?

● Scoot Assessment information for FO●
Anyone who took the assessment nowadays?
I would like to know the interview questions ( individual / Group / Technical ) and SIM ( profile / which type of aircraft do we use then ).
Thanks a lot

Anyone know if scoot offers a commuting kind of a contract for Captains.
As in 20/10 or 18/12 ?
And what are their travel benifits ( if any ).
Just a thought

Hi all, what are the latest at scoot?
Are they hiring 787 DEC? And if someone joins DEC 320, is there a transfer to the 787? Anyone did that?
Thanks

Most importantly, You should have asked for actual line pilot roster for the last 6 months. You will see some interesting patterns

I would be interested to fly the 787. But just the financial aspect kinda holding me back from this gig. I am currently earning about the same money as 737 skipper as scoot offers but living in a way cheaper country. I have seen them advertising for roadshows and recruiting DEC again. Does anyone know if they still ask for this huge amount of money upfront? For me it just doesn't make sense to pay so much money upfront as deposit and for typerating costs for a job that pays me the same as I currently earn....

So you pretty much answered yourself...as I did speaking about another 787 job.
