Upgrade timelines were roughly what I was told at interview. Commuting policy is the thing to check carefully before you sign, because it is much stricter in practice than the contract implies. [demo]
Pros
Safety reporting is taken seriously.
Cons
Standby patterns are punishing.

Cabin Manager · NBO · Jan 2026
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
Pay arrives on time, every month.
Cons
Roster changes constantly, right up to the day.
