Are the duty hours logged?
Thought not - so basically another potential evasion of taxes/charges by Ryanair.
Appreciate the beneficiary might appear to be the positioning crew but can't help feeling that MOL is artificially reducing his cost base as crews are shuttling to/from various bases, albeit on days off, FOC.
So he can have aircraft in bases with a high cost of living knowing that many pilots allocated to that base will be able to accept lower salaries than local carriers pay their flight crew as they will fly in and out FOC and rent rooms locally for duty periods.
If there was an additional financial cost of this positioning for flight crew it might make it harder for Ryanair to staff new bases.
