Fair pay, no roster stability at all

First Officer · DXB · Feb 2026

Regional jetSelf-employed1-3 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

Colleagues are excellent and crew rooms are decent.

Cons

Crewing is unreachable when it matters.

Management listens on safety, nothing else

Cabin Manager · DXB · May 2025

Regional jetAgency3-7 yrsRecommends

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

Safety reporting is taken seriously.

Cons

Roster changes constantly, right up to the day.

Solid contract, the reality does not match it

Captain · DXB · Apr 2025

TurbopropDirect hire1-3 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

Modern fleet, well maintained.

Cons

Standby patterns are punishing.
