Blimey!!
5500 to 6000 euros (+ - 3900 pounds) for a captain in a European base. No food, no water, no uniform, no pension, no medicals, no loss of license no nothing; and all of that to fly 900 hours a year.
Man and I thougth that you guys were one of the best paid pilots in Europe.
Copied from Ryanair web page:
What’s on offer – 5 reasons to become a Ryanair Pilot.
1. Outstanding Earnings Potential
Ryanair Pilots are recognised as the best paid short haul pilots in Europe. Senior pilots in Ryanair have excellent remuneration packages as follows:
Captains UK Up to £100,000 / EU Up to €130,000
First Officers (1,500 hrs) UK Up to £70,000 / EU Up to €80,000
At Ryanair there are no seniority lists and there are no complicated salary scales, you can expect to reach these amounts in 3 – 5 years, with more if you take on a line training role.
I don´t understand because those numbers don´t add up and seems to me that you guys in EU are getting shafted. If that is true I think Ryanair pilots have one of the crappiest T&C in Europe.
