Ameriflight Caribbean Questions

Is Ameriflight currently hiring into San Juan? I noticed they are posting alot of jobs lately and I am still interested. What domestic bases are they hiring into?

Not lately

Do we need a name for this? UPS (ugly prop syndrome) perhaps. Ameriflight is a good job. It'll never be a great job. Mostly because everyone (pilots and management) know it's a stepping stone, therefore no one really cares about improving things (pay, schedule, etc.) At the airlines being on the first page of the seniority list means you work when you want, holidays off, cushy schedule. At AMF all it means is you get paid more. You still have to work most holidays, or at least the days before and after so traveling is out of the question. There's no vacation during the holiday season, so unless you live close to family or they come to you don't plan on seeing them. Some bases have it better than others, but at the end of the day the lack of a contract/work rules means you're at the mercy of whatever management can get away with under Part 135; and if you're familiar with 135 you know that's a lot. Happy Holidays.
