Last time I looked £80k was the median when basic plus shift and licence pay was included. I believe United Airlines at LHR are paying in excess of £100k, Virgin is next, Jet2 up in the regions follows that then BA etc. Last I heard from a mate at BA was that all the Virgin guys were jumping to United and BA were filling the gaps at Virgin. Jet2 is even drawing LAEs back from the Sandpit.
Not sure where it's going to end but there seems to be lots of brand new cars in the car park. 😁
