AirWis is not my first airline experience, and so far, I am impressed on many fronts. They got us into classes super fast. We were paid in training and did not have to share hotel rooms. We did not need to learn unnecessary details. They have done a good job to ensure that you are learning what you will need to know. From what I hear, this was not the case until more recently.
Worth noting is that they seem to go out of their way to show interest in their new hires. We had company paid dinners on more than one occasion and several high-level managers showed up. The best way I can describe it is that it feels like an airline with a heart. No complaints here and I would make the same choice again. Benefits are TERRIFIC.
