Since BA has once again been dragged into a post about Emirates! Again!�� (I wonder why?)
Attempting to generalise senior BA training captain's take home pay is rather difficult. I know for a fact, some take home very significantly more than £180k. A top scale bog standard line pilot would do that if they lived in a tax free regime. Which more are doing, and the lifestyle allows. (They also spend less time commuting by air, than I do by car!)
They don't have to live in the sandpit either, nor work for middle eastern employers, with all the issues that entails!! Sounds to me like anyone working there for less than £300k is selling themselves short. No wonder people avoid the place like the plague, and people vote with their feet.
But I find Dubai a great place. To visit!
