I believe the final Jetstar Captains wage will be around 150K now and even then the company is going to suffer as the market dictates higher pay or they will lose too many pilots overseas as is happening at airslave (jetconnect) in NZ.
He believes he can get up to 1000 hours a year flying time from the pilots, as opposed to Virgin Blue's 700 hours a year (and Qantas's much less).
I don't know where they get this stuff I did just over 900 hrs last year and I know others that did close to their 1000, you fly more you get paid more......simple.
BZTW does Impulse/Jetstar have the same dispo. to go to 1000?
