What airlines precisely are you comparing to make this sweeping comparison between payscale.... And your predictions of being able to retire comfortably.
Have you genuinely looked at your employee contributed provident scheme to see what you could realistically expect to attain by retirement age be it 55 or 60... I assure you the prospects are not at all encouraging for a B Scaler....
Further have you seriously done your homework and compared your expected provident fund returns with other airlines such as QANTAS.... I am sure you will be struck dumbfounded at how poorly your retirement scheme is actually performing in comparison.
