just wonder how much having excess staff is costing gulf air, and by how much is it contributing to the a million a day losses
I don't know what the average wage in GF is, but an airline this size in Europe (30 aircraft) would have approximately 150 staff per aircraft or less, requireing about 4500 total.....GF has about 6000 I am told. Therefore, find your average wage, multiply it be 1500/month and there is your answer. Incidentally in the US it is about 120/aircraft.

(Actually you would have to figure the total cost to the company including allowances, benefits etc.) The end result is quite small considering the projected losses etc., but it is still very relevant.
