How about we get back on track?

Tigerair and its pilot negotiators have come to an in-principle agreement regarding the next Certified Agreement.

The CA will be put to vote in the near future.

Tiger - Any Feedback?

I have been considering throwing my hat in the ring for an FO gig at Tiger but was keen to hear from anybody that already works there prior to starting the process. Specifically;

What sort of hours do you put in?
What's the training like?
What are the crew like?
Do you feel that the company will indeed keep growing?
What are the pay and conditions?
Is the endorsement self funded up front or can you be bonded for it?

Feel free to PM me.

Cheers HHH

From another PPRuNe link.....

Be prepared to self-sponsor an A320 Type Rating or CCQ if not already A320 endorsed

That sounds like a decent agreement. Does anyone know how many overnights roughly per roster at Tiger? Being owned by V now, could one expect 5 day trips? Or possibly more a Jetstar type of roster.

Can i take that to read pilots already employed at time of EBA signing will get an annual retention bonus of 10 k for Capt and $6667 for F/O's but those not already employed at time of EBA signing will get less than half that?

Atlas, TT's model is to avoid O/N costs being an LCC, presently there are no overnighting duties, that being said there are crews that are MEL based however on secondment to the SYD base for periods of time...

With the new expansion it is hard to tell what direction they are heading, I'll try and suss it out when I'm over at the zoo next at work.

So based on the brief, a level 1 (year 1?) FO goes from the current EBA of $84,254 + Guaranteed 500hrs @ $40.42 = $104,464 Base

To $94,250 base for 660hrs!

If around 75 hours a month is correct, or 900hrs a year, the current EBA would be $120,632.

The new $111,050.

As a new pilot you wouldn't get the retention bonus, which goes from every 3 years to yearly for the same amount.

So in the end if we pro-rata the current 3 yearly bonus to yearly.

For a pilot joining after the new EBA..

Current EBA $127,299.

New EBA $111,050.

Surely not!?!
