Ideally you should be single with no living relatives to work at OAI! We've had several crewmembers from both fleets put on bereavement leave overseas then abandoned.......One if our 777 guys was put on leave in Kyrgyzstan after his grandmother passed away and told to find his own way home! Travel department wouldn't even assist him in booking transportation............
Just another way management at "The Big O" lets us know they care!
