Commuting with at least 12 days off a month plus you can use your leave days on either side, would make it acceptable. A basing would be perfect! Possibly a combination of both.
I am looking into this as we speak. If I get 4weeks on and two weeks off? Then arriverdeci emirates. It's simple! Fed up living here. The expiry date has come and gone a long time ago.
6% doesnt come anywhere close to what it should be. Plus the training pay scheme is taking far too long to materialize! Which all indicate to me that this airline is not serious about retaining pilots and instructors.
Smoke and mirrors doesnt work anymore. Money talks and we all know what walks? Plus quality of life. And it's time for me to take the Family back home. This is not my home and NEVER will be. Living in transit for the last thirteen years has taken it's toll! Besides there are enough new guys and gals who are happy to be here. Good for them, I was happy to be here once too!
