Hadj Season

Hadj 2007/08

Working as an airline crew member on a Hajj operation is always a tremendous challenge. Not everyone is prepared for it - especially when the operating conditions are precarious or when you fly to dangerous places. But it is also a tremendous life experience from which you learn a lot about others and about yourself. And if beside that you are an aviation lover and like to see exotic airplanes and mysterious airlines, it is also the perfect opportunity for that.
