£9,200 basic pay is really really bad, especially living near Heathrow being a very expensive place to rent ! You'll find out most of the crew are actually renting a big house of 5 bedrooms for like £1,800 and split the cost between them five, being approx £360 each, and that is if you are lucky enough to find someone serious, who wont drop out 3 weeks later...
To rent a studio flat in Hounslow, we are talking between £500 and £600 per month, so the best way of doing it is going for a rented bedroom, especially on those wages !! Apart from the basic pay, you get 10% on bar commission and an hourly pay, soy my guess is as main crew, you'll take home about £1,100-£1,200 per month... not very good hey ? It's amazing to say that a BA franchise company such as GB has actually got a higher basic pay of £9,609
