The company has a friendly environment, and all the people in the headquarters are happy to help and to make the life of the flight crew easier. I really enjoyed the OCC. All the arrangements were clear and simple. I'm delighted to be part of Avion Express and I must say all the support from Rishworth was essential during the assessment. It's a great milestone in my career."
