Plus extra working/overtime/day off payments etc for those that way inclined
Might be wrong but think current deal runs until Autumn 2019
Take home Pay , assuming UK tax
Y1 FO £4,244.96 a month
Y1 Capt £6,166.62 a month
Y16 FO £5,533.30 a month
So after 16 years you get a command and hey ho another 600/month. Just Saying !
Top Captain Pay, after around 25-30 years service = 8,100
Y1 China contract Capt take home £19500/ month . And rising .
UK Pay is pathetic. The airlines rely on the love of flying being paramount.
Branson's not filthy rich for being stupid . Willy Walsh has sussed it too. Offer the world. But not the pay.
