Be careful with Flydubai. Information concerning their T&Cs on the initial offering via e-mail are different from what is presented at the interview.

They e-mailed a package to those who were short listed for a short notice interview. In the e-mail, there was no mention that you have to fly 80 hours a month to get 80 hours of pay. There was no mention of a $25,000 training bond, even if you are current qualified and a TRI/TRE. The medical insurance presented in their e-mail was much more generous than presented at the interview too.

When brought these conflicts of information to their attention, they told me “Take it or leave, as these are the terms… nonnegotiable.” Fair enough.
Not a good way to enter into an employee/employer relationship.

They ceased interviews for a while do to the Boeing strike. Have not heard if they are actually interviewing or the revised delivery date for their aircraft.

Emirates is your best bet rather than Flydubai.
