First Officer · GVA · Jun 2026
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
Modern fleet, well maintained.
Cons
Standby patterns are punishing.

First Officer · ZRH · Jun 2026
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
Good route mix, not the same four sectors forever.
Cons
Commuting policy is far stricter than it reads.

Captain · ZRH · Jan 2026
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
Safety reporting is taken seriously.
Cons
Days off are theoretical.

Pros
Safety reporting is taken seriously.
Cons
Roster changes constantly, right up to the day.

Cabin Manager · GVA · Apr 2025
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
Days off are theoretical.
