In 2018 he published his first novel A Lifelong Flight inspired by his experience in the industry.

His knowledge of the airlines goes beyond the customer facing functions and reaches for the very core of the companies. 

"As a passenger, we don't see the amount of work being done at an airline; we tend to think an airline is only made of pilots and flight attendants but there is so much more happening out there!" 

"I always knew I wanted to work for an airline, but I didn't know what I could do, where to start?" 

"I was lucky I started in the Network Planning area, which is very central and gave me exposure to the entire airline" 

"I had exposure to CEO level issues at a relatively young age and it made me grasp the global picture quicker" 

Faical is an enthusiastic traveler and he visited 50+ countries.
