Salary!

It's nice to hear that things will hopefully change positively in Sun Express with the new DO.
But also hear the salary issue is still hanging and pending!

Sun Express is - almost - the only company still keeping the lowest pay in this sector. And the question is: For how long?
If you stop for a moment to compare your salary to Turkish Airlines - I would not compare at all as they are the flag carriers with completely different structure - Sun Express' salary and benefits are still below Atlas Jet, Pegasus, Sky and Onur salary and benefits.

The new season soon will start in Turkey with 40 to 50 open pilot positions. The interline transfers soon will start - regardless the gentleman's agreements among some carriers - and the top pay will prevail!

If Sun Express would like to keep the Know how and the Experience in the company they will be forced to pay more or at least equally to others or the market will force this salary issue to take care itself.

Here in Europe this saying is still valid: Money can't buy the safety and quality, but helps to keep it!

Good luck all.
