Capts are 5453 fixed pattern in the UK. 97 basic + sector pay. Lol is 1.3 basic. Pension 7%. Loyalty bonus depends on length of service up to 15%. Perf bonus annual - currently max 5% normally around 2.5. Staff travel (pretty useless). No medical cover. Leave 25 days
Basics ok, the rest isn't great as you can see. They reckon they need 110 Capts next year. The real figure more like 150. There are around 600 FOs chasing those positions and the management are confident they will be filled internally. DEC is for a pool in case they get stuck unless you want LIS/OPO of which case you can start tomorrow - but ask yourself why nobody else wants them.
