This is something that has been bugging me for a long time. Why is it that Ryanair pilots based at Luton, subject to the same tax office as easyJet pilots, pay no tax at all on their sector pay, whereas easyJet guys have to? The same applies at Stansted. Why the difference and how come the different tax breaks? Anyone know, cos the Ryanair Captains take home pay is about £500 - to a £1000 more a month than an easyJet Captain, for about the same amount of work. Love to know the answer.
