E mail is addressed to "all flight crew except those based in Australia and Canada". I guess this is because negotiations continue for these bases.
The most fortunate group, however, are UK Unified FO1 – FO4 who get a 5% pay rise. Which goes to show why we have had this increase forced upon us. Why does this (non existent) group get a proportionately higher raise than everyone else? Is it so the recruiters can lie to new joiners about the salary they will receive when they are at this seniority level and take up a UK base? Or is it because CX anticipate recruiting directly onto the base?
