You must remember the loyalty bonus after each full year. This is a significant sum. Also look at the extra benefits not provided by some of the fringe players.The pay was excellent until recently when it has slipped back way behind the competitors but the balpa team are working on this right now. The aim of the Balpa Company Council is to make easyJet a career airline which pilots want to join and stay at for the rest of thier careers. this is massively in the interest of all concerned, saving the company huge training bills, and less disruption for the workforce. The new pay deal proposed by the CC represents great value for the company whilst providing very adequate remuneration and career sustainability for the workforce.
My advice is to join easyjet, join balpa, and make the job worth doing!
