ContractsThere are 4 schools that provide same contract: Crewlink, St.James, Dalmac and Cavok.
The contract is for 3 years subject to 1 month probation period.
John said,
----------
As you can see from the Crewlink contract above, probation is for 12 months and ''NOT '' 1 month as stated by
malchiwka and 4 schools Do Not provide contracts,Only 2 do Crewlink and Workforce International....Termination of your contract within 12 months is over a 60% rate..

Pay
A new contract can expect pay between 1,100 - 1,400 euro plus 1.200 new joiners payment in first 6 months.

John said,
----------
As you can see from a part of a wage slip (1)of a Probationary Ryanair Cabin Crew the monthly salary was 591 Euro...This was the salary paid and not between 1,100 - 1,400 as stated by
malchiwka .
The 1.200 new joiners payment which is paid to Probationary cabin crew over a 6 month period Will be taken from your salary if you are Terminated before the 6 month period..Termination is high 5th and 6 month of contracts...As you can see from part of my daughter's wage slip (2) month 1 AL 300 is the new joiners payment taken back from Ryanair/Crewlink once Terminated.......

Accommodation
Accommodation during training course can be either provided or not.
If you plan to do training course in Hahn then student accommodation is provided. If you plan to do training in Dublin, Rush host family accommodation provided.
In all other destinations you will have to find your own accommodation for duration of the training due to large number of courses being run schools are not able to provide accommodation to everyone.
Once you finish with your training course you will have to find your own accommodation in your base. Company/Schools as any other airline or company will not provide you with it as it is your own responsibility.
John said,

We have been informed that Hahn accommodation is basic and no shops near by..It is in the middle of no-were (the very same as Airports ryanair fly to). Make sure you take plenty of money as it will be needed.
Ryanair/Crewlink give you nothing,not even a pen....
The host family accommodation in Rush,we have not had any complaints from students but Dalmac set up Workforce International with Ryanair... As said by
malchiwka ''large number of courses being run''
The reason why Ryanair have a large number of training courses is simply to understand '''TERMINATION is over 60%....
Below comment is from a parent
''My son has just returned from Hahn, not having completed the 6 weeks training course. Besides all the 'wonderful 'comments posted above, may I advise prospective candidates to be prepared for sleepless nights having to study till the early hours of the morning,( as expected to know modules word by word ) to have no wi-fi at the accommodation except at the training centre, to take care when buying a German sim card as might prove impossible to activate, to have to walk/taxi to airport for an ATM and to take a 50 minute walk to a supermarket situated by the petrol station. Surely was not worth this sacrifice, to be treated badly financially once graduated. All the above posts are confirming my doubts, pity I did not read them before we paid the initial 1000 euros ''!

We have 2 standby duties:

John said,
You will have 2 Home standby days a week which you are NOT paid for....If you are called and you do not answer the call,this will be used against you as a No-show...
Airport standby you are paid 30 Euro for the 8 hours which works out 3 euro an hour after tax.....Whilst on airport Standby you will be used to board passengers and Xmas time sell the charity calendar..
malchiwka said,
Roster pattern
Roster pattern is very easy. Normally it consists of 5 consecutive days working on early shift with following 2 days off and then 5 consecutive days on late shift following 3 days off.
Trip lenght
Your day may consist of 2, 4 or 6 flights a day which could last from 20 minutes flight time to 5 and half hours. This of course depends on the day, i.e. if you have a trip to Canary Islands from Stansted you would only do a return trip as it lasts over 5 hours. If you have combination of short flight which are under an hour each this could be up to 6.
malchiwka said,
Leave
You will be guaranteed 20 days of leave per annum as well as if you want to have some more you could always apply for some unpaid leaves.
John said,
You are guaranteed 20 days leave if you are there long enough,which is not Guaranteed...Termination before 12 months is Guaranteed...

Aircraft type
We only fly Boeing 737-800 type
Part time job
Ryanair does not provide cabin crew with part time job.
John said,
Ryanair does not provide a real job..Recruitment for Termination is what they do...

Email of complaint below has been sent to cabincrew.com
Dear Marcus Starnes,
Information has been sent to our Ryanairdontcare Campaign about a person who works for Ryanair and places posts on your site
www.cabincrew.com regularly.
As Terms and conditions in using the forums / cabincrew.com

Many things malchiwka has posted are inaccurate,misleading and false.....
As you will see from Ryanairdontcare Campaign's Blog post below
I must point out that Malchiwka a Ryanair worker is using your whole site to encourage students to join Ryanair cabin crew training which has a fee of up to 3000 euro with a high level of Termination amongst young paid students.
Can we ask if Malchiwka a Ryanair worker posts via one of your advertising packages
Thank you for your time
