First Officer: PhP 80,000 (depending on flying time on aircraft type and seat
***Thirteenth (13th) month pay for every completed calendar year**

Productivity pay:
Captain: PhP 4,450 per hour (Maximum of 1,000 hours per year and no more than 100 hours per month.
First Officer: PhP 3,350 per hour (Maximum of 1,000 hours per year and no more than 100 hours per month.
Do the math. Base pay for a Capt is $2572 US per month. Productivity Pay is $90.72 US per flight hour. No trip or duty rigs. So an 80 hour month the Capt is making $9988 US per month, or if you look at it yearly it's just about $120,000 US. The rest of the world is paying A330 Captains $250,000 US a year or better.

Oh, and that 13 month pay? That's only the base salary, $2572.

That should tell you all you need to know. Living and commuting to work in Manila is a nightmare. Live 5 miles from the airport? Better plan on at least an hour commute, if not more each way, every day.

And that 6/2 roster? Plan on your last day of the 6 weeks to arrive Manila at 3am (of your day off) and plan on being ready to fly again at midnight preceding your day to start. In other words, your 14 days is really 12 days.

A330 Type Rating.
Medical insurance? Yea, it's great if you never get sick or need it. Have a major medical problem? Better have lots of money saved up.

Shopping benefits? Yep, in Robinson's. Again, nothing to write home about.

See above post on vacation and sick leave policy. A joke.

Free travel? Get ready to jump through some hoops, and family travel is limited, very limited.

A330 Type Rating. Yep, on a CAAP license trained by CP. In other words, useless outside of the Philippines. Oh, and you will sign a three year training bond.
