Eveything on this thread has been talked about time and time and time again. Have to say though you’re sugar coating it to the exteme if you think or are trying to suggest the package is beginning to break even after 5 years. It’s 14 years before a BA Captain earns what an Ezy one does. I’ve done the numbers having turned down BA787 last year (for more reasons than just money of course. For me at 35 hrs of age then and with kids who weren’t born when I passed the numbers and lifestyle no longer worked).

Sugar coat what you want but it’s not only people who took ‘early’ commands that are paid less. Have a look at a 14 year BA 320 captain and he’ll be on less than what EZY paid me on the day I started ...
