CJ have started recruiting Primera Air pilots. Perfect timing. Captains are being offered DEC, which of course is a huge offense to those co pilots in CJ, having lots of experience on the CRJ 900, and ready and waiting for upgrade.

And how many of those copilots are there, because CJ has been recruiting CRJ DEC for ages already. So I suspect there’s either not enough of those experienced FOs or they are not considered ready/suitable for upgrade yet. Otherwise I suspect it would make sense to upgrade, both financially and operationally. Replacement FOs are easier to find than experienced captains.

Hi, Guys
I would like to know some insights about Cityjet. For FO position there will be opportunity on SSJ 100 or only on CRJ and AVRO? As far as I understood, they intend to phase the jumbolino out in a few years ( In how much time this is the question....)
Are PPJN figues accurate regarding salary? Do we have to pay for Type rating (Cost 23K€ stated on PPJN) or is it bonded for FO?
Thanks, Guys

Each base has its own terms and conditions. It would be worthwhile asking for the specific base you're interested in.
A few friends of mine are flying around France and Scandinavia for CityJet on the CRJ700 and CRJ900. They like it.

Good evening to all,
Regarding Cityjet stafftravel, any aggreements with other airlines (zed tickets, my idtravel?)
Manual flight allowed, encouraged (without FDs, AP or AT) on all fleets?
Thank you.

Does anybody have any information concerning the AMS base???
I would like to find out some more about the salary and rosters.
Also what would be the likelihood of eventually having to transfer to another base??

Imho, if you have other options then stay away from these Low Seniority Companys. There is a reason why BA, Virgin Atlantic, etc. have a very high seniority. It Is Simply Because They Offer Good T&Cs, compared to eg. SAIL, Cityjet and other low cost companys. Some might argue that it is because the low cost companys are expanding, they have a low seniority and short time to upgrade. Imho that is not true. It is simply because pilots are leaving, at first chance.

Any infos if they are going to keep these SSJ 100 or are they going to replace them by another aircraft type. According to PPJN SS100s are going to be withdrawn.
CityJet pilot jobs news for airline pilots and aviation schools
It seems that SSJ100 is a sensible topic : Brussels Airlines is not planning to renew SSJ100 wet-leases - Russian aviation news
It will be interesting to know by which aircraft type that they are going to use as these SSJ100 were supposed to replace the Avro. Maybe Embraer ?

Lift an good point but at this stage I am not aware of London City ops without RJ - hence probably reason they are maintaining the RJ to cover LCY
Ther Sukhoi is def out from what I have heard - either way I am not an insider so

Paris ORY
Cityjet has 2 bases in Paris : CDG and ORY. The latter was on behalf Of HOP ( feeder of AF) Which had to wetlease during high season in summer 2018(Jota, tradeair, cityjet..)IT can be ORY. Nothing heard for CDG, and I dont think as they are recruiting pilots( captain and FO) on ARJ For Air France flights.
