Does anyone have experience of working under this type of contract. Is this a standard contract, or has it evolved over the last few years. |
9W Contract...
WOW...sign the contract and go! This is a great gig for someone who doesn't want anything close to organization in their life.
Oh..and 'policy changes'...it depends how on how good the Chai was in the morning as to how they interpret 'todays' policy details. ...and you'll only do this once. Incredible India |

Reality Check...
I'm trying to figure out what the reality is. |
Boeing B777 Line Captain This is unique opportunity for retired or close to retirement B777 captains to extend their career to age 65 New base options are now available. Apart from Mumbai, bases in Abu Dhabi (AUH), New York (EWR and JFK) and Chicago (ORD) and are offered. Five days on / five days off rosters are offered in the US. Up to 28 captains per base are planned. Candidates up to age 63 are acceptable. Candidates who have not flown the B777 within the last 42 months are acceptable on a case by case basis. Customer will pay for recurrent training of selected candidates who are not current. Recurrent training is done after candidates have successfully completed their screening and have a signed their employment contract. Our customer, requires fifty (50) B777 Line Captains and six (6) TRIs for 2014 employment. The travel benefits also leave a lot to be desired, if I were to be confirmed business, upgradeable to first that might work but economy on a twelve to fourteen hour flight just doesn't suit me. Right now I'm working for an airline in AUH that is going to be using Jet to some flying for us, pay and terms are good, duty travel is confirmed business class and personal travel is ID 50 or 90 business or first, my choice, I reckon it's probably best just to stay where I am. |
DGCA and JA new policies to retain experienced pilots
I just got invited for a B777 NTR preliminary SIM assessment in BOM; the market is dry and yes, they will take Boeing heavy jet experience any takers? It remains to be seen who is willing to pay the 36 month bond? :sad:

B777NTR
And exactly where is this info from , no one in the expat cell seems to know about NTR T7 interviews
|
Per Expat Cell 700 on type required... DGCA requirement.

First time user here.
Just received word from Jet Airways that they are basing me out of Abu Dhabi till the end of 2014. :ugh: So much for the JFK Bases. I told them my contract says JFK but they said they can switch it depending on the needs of the company. := The writing is on the wall!! I knew I shouldn't have taken this position. The contract they present is worthless and although I was forewarned, I regrettably ignored all the info from my peers. And the worst of it is, my family has already moved back awaiting my JFK basing. Which appears not be in the cards anytime soon. Wait till the wife hears this... :sad: Stay away from this worthless contract gents. And don't resign from wherever you are. I'm in the process of going to see if I can get my old job back. |
Its time for liars like Old Bold Pilot and Boeing 777 Line Captain to crawl out of their holes and explain this.
|
Old Bold Pilot is too busy sending me PM's that have zero information and rhetorical based questions.
He answers questions with a question. It's obvious he's part of the scam and running around in circles. |
Correction guys...
Upon further pressing today, Jet Airways HR advised me that in-fact Abu Dhabi basing will not be possible and that my family and I will be based out of BOM. JFK (or any USA) basing is a long shot at this point and now they are saying it could be 2016 (if at all). This story gets worse by the day. :ugh: |

If ET offers first or business class to screenings with no out of pocket expenses while 9W offers economy class with a submission for refunds for expenses, this shows the Jet needs to improve their terms. Additionally the carrot of US basing then withdrawing after signing shows a lack of principles on their part. I'll be withdrawing my interest and stay right where I am.

OldBoldPilot,
I'm confused. Jet Airways is still putting out this literature however I was told as recent as last week by Menon that my family and I would "not" be based out of JFK. Instead we'd be living and based out of BOM. The JFK bases are a long shot and at best, would not be happening for at least a year, most likely longer (if ever). This US Basing is dependent on FAA approval which does not appear to look favorable at this stage. How, can they tell me one day that USA Basing's are not likely to happen for quite some time yet still post JFK Basing's? This airline doesn't seem to be able to keep their facts straight. Very scary... and quite concerning. |
Humor...
All I can do is laugh. Why don't people read and believe the posts? And to give up a perfectly good job to go there? Furthermore..for those who think the CAT 2 will be lifted anytime soon, it's time for a reality check. Maybe in 2 years.

Jet Airways
I want to add to the various posts that there is no truth to the NY basings, a colleague who just completed his line training was told that there are no more THY Istanbul vacancies and that they have the numbers required for that base. There are many Jet Airways Indian B737 pilots being trained in Etihad to fly the B777 and they will be based in UAE for 18 months and expat pilots will be based in Abu Dhabi. My recruitment agency is hopeless as are the others, do not believe the ads for any US bases, that will not materialize for at least one and a half years. There are RUMORS floating that they will even be terminating expat B777 pilots. Please believe what is being written, these are not negative rumors, they are facts. If not for my age I would have been out of here by now. Don't believe the ads and the promises that Jet Airways will make.They will not honor them.Everything they advertize or state is misleading.

Changed?
You don't say....
I guess some don't read previous posts. I feel sorry for you all. The adage, 'Buyer beware' and 'if it sounds too good to be true, it is', fits. Been there done that. |
FullForward..... you are stupid cowardly asshole! Every pilot that accepts a contract position does it because it suits THEIR situation. Some do it just to continue enjoying a career with a Foreign airline and others do it out of necessity. Don't be so easy to judge....Dick head!!

I agree with steemer . FF time to take a break and make it a long one . On the ignore list.
