That's different than I experienced - 2 weeks room is covered by VAC. Yes you will have to pay for food $8 USD a day if you take advantage of the free breakfast buffet in the lobby.

We went up to Hanoi just once and did the test and medical same day.

Any knews of when the next A330 will be on property?
Also has anyone heard of interviews for A330 positions?

fokkerjet 6th Feb 2009 01:57

Anybody currently flying the Fokker 70?

Lost in Saigon 6th Feb 2009 02:01

When I was there in 2003-2006, only Vietnamese nationals flew the F70's.

I see now that they are advertising, so that must have changed.......

fokkerjet 6th Feb 2009 14:53

I'm still seeing ads for F70 Captains......

Dream Land 6th Feb 2009 18:08

Yes, expat hiring on the F70. :cool:

?
 
And are there any good-or at least bad-news for the A320 applicants?

THRidle 10th Feb 2009 12:56

I don't know about the A320, but the 330 has been put on hold until late March with, at this stage, recruiting to start again about mid April.

LeChuck 10th Feb 2009 18:39

Same for the A320 according to one of the agencies.

Nevertheless, I would say April and the months ahead will see some recruitment activity at VA.

Keep positive, cheers

THRidle 12th Feb 2009 16:02

Yanafrica, your best bet would be to contact the recruitment agency that told you that you had been accepted. They should have the most upto date info.

Luke Darkstar 14th Feb 2009 09:22

You will find anything you like and you are looking for in Saigon. Serious and for joy. Don't worry. Just come and find out.
What is still missing you can get in your vacation days abroad. For me it is not really much.

juzlime 17th Feb 2009 08:04

Does anybody know hows the pay like for FO A330? n the routes expats fly to on the 330.

SonnyCrockett 17th Feb 2009 21:55

varigflier 21st Feb 2009 18:22

Thanks for the info Shteck.:ok:

spinproof 21st Feb 2009 19:04

May not have heard this correctly but the crew was at the hotel and they called them back? How does that implicate them if it wasn't in their possession?

RoosterChange 22nd Feb 2009 12:26

Ever since all these furlought "ong nam" invaded Vietnam Airlines, the overall standard of professionalism declined noticeable, even here on pprune now.

At least the Kiwis are helping to fight back!:ouch:

Prior to this incident expats had nothing to worry about, contract agencies are now working with VAC to fix the situation. :rolleyes:

...by the way I heard you were a gold brick!!!!!!!!;)

UALSIC 24th Feb 2009 00:50

Maybe you should write the truth as certain recent incidents involving Kiwi's certainly indicates the opposite.
