You can expect around 500GBP for 3 day trips and around 800/900 GBP for 4/5 day trips. Nobody seems to be doing more than 4 trips a month.
So if say as an FO, you did 4x 3 days trips (12 days for simplicity sake), that would mean you would earn an additional £2000/month on top of base pay which is around 25k/yr. Is that correct?
If so, that's confusing to here because I know some people training via Speed bird and also us whitetail cadets, we got told that as a y1 SH LHR FO, you can certainly expect to add ~25k/yr to base pay (if anyone could clarify what kind of trips would be required to achieve this that would be really insightful!). But if that's the case, how can it be more for SH than a LH FO?
Thanks in advance and apologies if I've not written that in the best way! Hopefully you get what I mean
