It is fully french, with french speaking pilots.
The company is expanding and there are more aircraft/routes to come later this year.
The company offers the B738 TR. Salary FO is 4000 euro/month.
Which airports and how do they get slots? I thought Easy was upset about lack of slots at CDG/ORY? How can Transavia expand when Easy can't expand?

Because Transavia is KLM-low cost and KLM is Air France, and you don't really expect Air France to have the same allocation of slots as those pesky Orange Rosbif's? Silly boy.
Is that 4000euros Net or gross, sounds very low?

It can be net when you fly a lot. It's good you dont have to pay for the TR, and you get a good french pension scheme.
No much difference with easyJet or Ryanair.
Anyway, nowdays if you want to earn a lot of cash don't be a pilot :ugh:
Open your own TRTO :}

Open your own TRTO :} Well during the gold race in California, those who made the big money were not the gold hunters but the ones that were selling shovels and picks. :}
