Fine if you live at base, brutal if you commute

Cabin Manager · ORY · Sep 2025

WidebodySelf-employed1-3 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

Pay arrives on time, every month.

Cons

Commuting policy is far stricter than it reads.

Upgrade came on time, everything else slipped

First Officer · ORY · Jun 2025

NarrowbodySelf-employed7+ yrsDoes not recommend

Sick leave is not held against you, which matters more than people expect. The trade-off is a roster that assumes you will always be available on days off. [demo]

Pros

Modern fleet, well maintained.

Cons

Commuting policy is far stricter than it reads.
