Would anybody have salary information on Sharp Airlines?

Thanks in advance.

[avconnection]

Lots of movement around the country, time for an update?

[E.P.]

Hell, why not?

Australian based China Southern A330 Captains are averaging 18 nights at home each month and $350K pa ($20K per month in the bank after all taxes).

Four more glistening brand new A330s, fully loaded with all the goodies, arriving this year for the Oz operations.

Europe, UK, Asia and the Pacific layovers.

CSA have to be the friendliest, most accommodating people to work for and without any of the usual 'backstabbing, screw your mates, clamber over a dead dog to reach the top' culture of most carriers.

The gals are the 5th most stylish in the AP;

The top 10 stylish cabin crew in the Asia Pacific:
1. China Eastern Airlines
2. Asiana Airlines, Korea
3. Virgin Australia
4. Air China
5. China Southern
6. Air Asia, Malaysia
7. Singapore Airlines
8. Korean Air
9. Philippine Airlines
10. Jeju Air, Korea

A great job and a very happy bunch of chappies indeed

BTW, more A330 crew required!!

Yep, until they don't require your services anymore. Look at AC, they have wonderful ways of removing pilots on contract.

Let that new A330 sit in the Gaungzhou sunshine for a little bit longer and see how quickly the gloss wears off!

Unusual to have someone from CSA recruitment posting on DandG

You know it's a wind up when they put mainland Chinese CC above Singapore and Air Asia

[E.P.]

I expected the usual suspects to throw rocks at something they know little about.

No wind up and not from any contract company. Here is the link for the Cabin Crew rating;

The Australian airline with the most glamorous cabin crew | News.com.au

I take it your beauty's didn't make the grade?

CSA is trying extremely hard to keep expats happy, despite the usual list of demands that contract pilots roll out. The goal is another Emirates, Cathay, etc and they will be hammering the Australian market hard.

CSA has also dismissed pilots for disciplinary and standards issues, having said that if you play the game you are welcomed into the family.

Make no mistake, you need to put in a big effort and need to be a healthy specimen with a great attitude (no dick swinging egos welcome) to get accepted, but the rewards are there once up and running.

Monthly pay is net and no tax top up required for Oz pilots.

Enjoy!

G'day E.P.

Check your PM.....pls

[RENURPP]

The gals are the 5th most stylish

just to clarify, the "gals" are not the most stylish, he "gals" uniforms are the most stylish. There is a very large distinction between the two.

E.g. Julia Gillard in one of these stylish uniforms does not make Julia Gillard stylish.

[E.P.]

True, but the collars still need to match the cuffs which is why QF et al is nowhere to be seen.

[RENURPP]

Agreed! ...........................

Re CSA

EP,
Are you, (ie, expat pilots) being issued with official Chinese Govt tax receipts indicating exactly what tax has been paid?
As I understand it, this is the only way one can avoid paying the tax at home.

[E.P.]

Yes Sir and you should also research the ATO treaty below.

ARTICLE 15 - Dependent Personal Services

AUSTRALIAN TAX TREATIES
Chinese Agreement
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT OF AUSTRALIA AND THE GOVERNMENT OF THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBLE TAXATION AND THE PREVENTION OF FISCAL EVASION WITH RESPECT TO TAXES ON INCOME

E.P.

The fact that there's a tax agreement with China means nothing unless the ATO accepts that actual tax has been paid. If CSA was confident about this why wouldn't they have approached the ATO to get a ruling on this?

If it's the "tax paid" that tips it for you, I'd get a good tax opinion to back it up.

Not quite correct,

777 Figures quoted are level 4 not 5

Most Captains and F/o's now on level 6

[donpizmeov]

If you make it to level 7 do you win a free life pack or something? I am ****e at these games.
