Best fleet I have flown, worst crewing department

Cabin Crew · MAN · Mar 2026

Regional jetDirect hire0-1 yrsRecommends

Fatigue reports get acknowledged and then closed with no change. Safety reports are handled properly, so it is clearly a crewing problem rather than a culture problem, but that does not help when you are on your fourth…

Pros

Safety reporting is taken seriously.

Cons

Crewing is unreachable when it matters.

Upgrade came on time, everything else slipped

Cabin Crew · MAN · Mar 2026

WidebodySelf-employed7+ yrsRecommends

The roster is published on the 25th and changes several times before the month starts. Days off get rostered and then removed at short notice, which makes anything outside work impossible to plan. [demo]

Pros

Colleagues are excellent and crew rooms are decent.

Cons

Commuting policy is far stricter than it reads.
