Job Summary

As a VIP & Military Cabin Crew member, you are part of a specialized team that operates on a global scale. You will not have a standard monthly schedule; instead, you will bid for extended blocks of flying that could take you to four different continents in a single week.

Exceptional Employee Benefits

• Lucrative Pay Structure: Benefit from high hourly rates combined with exceptional international per diem payouts during extended trips.
• Unmatched Layovers: Spend your downtime in top-tier hotels in global capitals and unique international locales.
• Top-Tier Benefits: Excellent medical, dental, and vision insurance, alongside a generous 401(k) company contribution.
