Guys and girls, please read the contracts very carefully before you want to join and donīt believe any blind promises!
For the new bases (not LGW & BALPA) such as VCE, BCN, OPO, NAP or LIS:
- Expect very long transfer time to go to decent bases!
- NO fixed roster: forget commuting!
- Random only FRV 132 days OFF with no compensation (for Italian contracts this would imply normally a 10% uplift in salary!)
- NO loyality bonus & no pensions in BCN, virtually nothing in OPO & LIS!
- Basic ca. 100t CPT, SO 35t FO 47t basic (plus sector pay). These figure are BEFORE the tax man!
- new EASA regulation, no CAP371, FRMS guidance hardly followed
Unless you are desperate and you can afford it, go ahead. Unfortunately, easyJet has changed a lot!
