Terms and EndearmentThe forum the beancounters hoped would never happen. Your news on pay, rostering, allowances, extras and negotiations where you work. Let others in the industry make educated choices on where the grass is less brown! Scheduled, charter or contract -
Extra perks: 42 days leave/year, LoL, hospital insurance, end of service benefits ( 3 weeks basic salary/year of service), all hotel meals paid, free laundry, schooling paid up to 13800USD/year, full staff travel program ( ID90 etc), one confirmed annual leave ticket home, food drinks and toilet paper are free and available on board ( inclusive caviar and lobster if you are a nice guy)
downsides as well but for those, please visit the middle east forum...plenty of shit flying around there...
Five year North Sea Capt with small amount of overtime = £4000 and thats after £550 salary sacrifice for final salary pension scheme. Thats working an equal time time roster i.e week on week off.
Highland Airways Jetstream FO. £21k, £1400 per month after tax - not a penny more. No flight pay, loss of licence. Have to pay own medical. I think I need to join you GConti! There can't be many Turboprop FO's in the UK as badly off as this surely?
ok guys here we go , last 12 months net ,£3230, 4200, 3900, 4100, 4200, 3800, 3600, 4500, 3000, 3500, 3900, 3400.the lower figures are when im on leave, i dont bid and allow ba to place me on a blind line,but request "high credit" trips to favourite destinations.the work is incredibly easy.the time off in between good.bidline i think will give me more control and perhaps more cash if i want to bid for trips further afieild.as one of the guys mentioned ,pay rise looming. for info an average increment for fo is approx £2000.this will put my 3rd year basic at £50000 approx plus flight pay. i was a uk charter captain on A321/320.so you see with flight pay your almost back there in your 3rd year.
BA FO, Airbus320, Y2, average £3500 with minimum pension contribution. Flies 75h/month on a full month, which amounts to much more time spent at work because of Heathrow. You can get more money, as much as £4400. I did it the first few months, but I got fatigued and on the third month, my ears gave up and I missed a couple of trips. So now, I just stick with my normal pattern and £3500 and in fact would prefer to work less and make less since Heathrow really takes life out of me.
Left seat 737NG take home £4900 average, for 900 hours a year, don't let them tell you different!
Not bad take home but zero benefits, everything else stripped away..
guess which shower i work for...
