Right now, the pilot exodus is starting to be felt in CEBPAC. They just started refleeting with new planes, A320s, and what do they do? Make their pilots feel that they owe it to the company that they still have a job and that they will be trained on the 320s. And to add insult to injury, they give different salary levels to captains just because one came from a dc9 and another from a 757! Doing the same work with different pay? With this scheme, they'll be losing pilots faster than PAL.
As I gathered from a pilot who is enslaved there, CEBPAC base hr is 80. 320 Capts pay $2,400 (if you come from the 757) and $1,900 (from DC9). Additionals are transportation allowance ($3 per check-in), Rice allowance (less than the amount of 1 sack of rice given every 3 months), overtime pay (50% of daily rate) which you'll probably use to pay for hospital bills as flying more than 80 hrs is a killer, free breakfast, lunch, snack or dinner which must be gulped down in 5 minutes so as not to delay their turnaround. FOs pay barely squeaked past $1,000. So if anybody is interested, just feel free to apply.
I think CEBPAC will soon become a training academy rather than a discount carrier.
