But you'll look super cool in that Dreamliner bruh. Does the contract include pillows and blankets for the bunk or do you bring your own?

That is NAUK, no? NAI out of Ireland is something different I think

It is the only 787 job Norwegian is advertising right now. You cannot find any other 787 jobs with them.

But it is within line with the jobs available in Europe right now. For a European pilot looking to get closer to home from the Middle or Far East, it is not a bad gig overall compared to some of the other available jobs.

I believe because NAUK is a go already and since they are still fighting the flag of convenience NAI they haven't started hiring their Asian based pilots yet. It's anyone's guess what that will pay.

NAUK may pay poorly but it's essentially the same as virgin America in this country only using contract pilots instead. Nothing illegal is my understanding.

Officially the job listing shows 'Norwegian Long Haul', not Norwegian Air International or Norwegian Air UK.

That is utterly false, it's hugely below market rates in Europe for this type of job. Norwegian are a disgrace, worse than Ryanair. I fly for BA and the vast majority of our 787 FOs are making more than Norwegians top paid 787 CAs.

Is there any pressure on the guys going to NAI to stop and go elsewhere? I know the United States has the regional airline problem, but maybe things could've been different here if they had been nipped in the bud early on. With my limited understanding, NAI looks like another cancer that could be stopped if it's handled soon enough. One solution is for nobody to go there, but then I guess they could draw from non-European pilots as well... Anyhow, is there any pressure on European pilots to stop going to NAI?
