Net salaries for Emirates pilots are similar to Qantas
AH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA.........!!!!!!!
Net salaries for Emirates pilots are similar to Qantas, however the Australian government imposes a massive cost to Qantas in the form of income taxes for its employees, effectively increasing its wage bill by 35 - 40%
Do you understand the difference between NET and GROSS?

Income Tax doesn't increase the wage bill, it decreases the cash-in-hand (net) amount for the employee.
Emirates, who not only enjoy the above mentioned advantages, but also a massive Government subsidy in the form of ZERO income tax
Companies pay "income tax"??? Since when?

Get ys facts straight. If you want to hear why EK is doing so well, I can give you an almost endless list of the advantages they enjoy.

They do NOT pay the same net value as Qantas pilots are paid, exept maybe the 737 guys.

Or would it be the DASH drivers.....??
