Anyone who actually works for Ryanair prepared to state the truth of the current situaion for a new Cadet joining?
EG : Brookfield contract length and the likelyhood of that contract expiring/being terminated?
First base choice likelyhood? If not, where most likely?
Hours flown in first Year (new Cadet)
Take Home pay first Year?
the situation is very bad
at the moment a cadet can expect to fly 20 - 40 hours per month in the winter and 50 - 60 in the summer that makes under 24.000 € gross the first year . (50 € for 1 hour block) 17.000€ (1.416 € per month) net with no pension no holyday pay no sick pay. Since you will be probably be away from home you will have to pay the accomodation to stay there for standby duties.
At the moment some accountants let you deduct from the taxes the type rating so you can take the gross income as net for the first year .
Don't consider Ryanair as a work but just an hobby were you will spend money
the base is their choice but you can ask for one .
Brookfield doesn't give you a contract , it's more like a one-way guideline
on top of that ryanair crews are now pursue personally by tax men
