Management listens on safety, nothing else

Cabin Crew · CAI · Jul 2026

TurbopropSelf-employed1-3 yrsDoes not recommend

Pay lands on time and the per diems are accurate, which is more than I can say for my last airline. What wears you down is the standby pattern and how late the changes come through. [demo]

Pros

Pay arrives on time, every month.

Cons

Days off are theoretical.

Great colleagues, exhausting month after month

Captain · CAI · Jun 2026

Regional jetAgency7+ yrs

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

Good route mix, not the same four sectors forever.

Cons

Standby patterns are punishing.

Great colleagues, exhausting month after month

Captain · CAI · Mar 2026

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

Modern fleet, well maintained.

Cons

Crewing is unreachable when it matters.

Solid contract, the reality does not match it

Contract said one thing about days off and the reality is consistently two or three fewer a month. Everything else has been broadly as advertised. [demo]

Pros

Pay arrives on time, every month.

Cons

Crewing is unreachable when it matters.
