According to two of my friends recently hired by Air Pac... hiring is on hold for a while. But don't dispel... just a temporary glitch.

IAC Global is another agency representing AIR PAC. IAC is a more reputable operation to deal with.... FYI

Training is very good, and hotels are nice too. They said everyone at the airline is really nice and friendly.

Let's hope you can provoke a response. Looks like a great opportunity so hope the recruitment resumes soon.

Good luck Starlifter, will let you know when I hear more.

Rishworth is not very good at returning calls or providing up to date information for contracts to which there may not be any money for them.

I have three friends working for Air Pac. I will email them to see if they can provide information as it relates to adherence to the contract and QOL as well as future plans.

Hey all,

I am currently on contract with FJ through Spectrum of Ireland. A330 LHS.

I suspect the folks on here seeking info are 737 drivers. There are MANY different contracts for the bus and i assume for the Boeing as well.

IAC have recruited guys and girls for both types but my experience with them was not so good. I am still waiting for them to answer some questions from 6 months ago!!!

You can also direct hire without an agency. Just apply on line.

So far so good, hard work but good crews and new planes (bus that is) and a whole lot more fun than my last gig.
