Regional Wages
Work for QF regional take home about $2000 - $2300 per month including allowances, equivalent 2 years service.
Obviously staff travel etc.
The 35000 pound wage/package sounds alright (Poss. Emirates etc.)

35,000 Pounds (whoooa)
Hello Everyone,
Carrioke, Just wondering how you worked out that amount for your annual sallary
Im from Aust and starting with Emirates on the 21st August and had no idea it would be that amount. Thats approx $AUD 75,000 - 85,000 tax free.
I'm assuming you work for Emirates because your talking about the Dhm.
Also, is that Grade II your talking about or a higher position?
Thanks in advance,
Andrew

Hi Andrew dima. The amount i posted is based on Purser position. that is roughly 5100 dhs basic. then roughly 4 or 5000 dhs on top of that depending on flying hours. When you also take into consideration that it is tax free and all accomodation ,furniture and bills are paid for by the company( in uk depending where you live, rent is roughly 400 pounds per month?, to furnish an apt with brand new stuff would also cost a fair bit, and bills 200 pounds a month or so:- so basically with emirates you dont have all these added costs so your salary is essentially for phone bills, food and drink, clothes and going out etc) Therefore you can save a lot of money if you so wished which you wouldnt be able to if you lived in the uk, hence why i guess my package is worth all in all around 31- 35,000 uk pounds.
In my first year i paid off all my uni debts and bought a house and one could definitely say I have active social life in dubai and dont stay in and count my dhs! So am very happy to have had this opportunity as i dont think I would be able to afford half the things if i worked for another airline. Hope this was some help and see you on the line when you arrive!!

I notice that there is a distinct silence from BA crew members so I shall have a stab at guessing the take home pay - based on friends in the job and bar talk down route.
At BA I believe the following figures are correct...
Short Haul Junior £900 - £1700 pcm
Long Haul Junior £1700 - £2700 pcm
Long Haul Purser £2500 - £3500 pcm
Long Haul CSD £2800 - £4000 pcm
These figures are net, ie after tax.

Well BB , you are way off - i'm Shorthaul fulltime (10 yrs service), and i clear always approx £1500 / mth.
For Longhaul ,add another £500 .
For post 97 crew , their basic is £10 k less than mine.
So , i think you overestimated , - how about the pilots , going by your figures , they must be on £5,000-7,000 / month ? ? ? ? ?

Anti-ice,
I don't think BB's that far off....He/She is talking minimum/maximum take home pay...although I will say I think we're talking LHR crew only.I'll take your word for s/haul,but the l/haul estimates are reasonable(max/min).
I'm L/haul crew LHR and without saying what grade or rank,I think BB has it about right...ie,min/max.Seen enough payslips in my time,here and there, to concur.

Apologies for the tardiness of this response, been a bit busy lately...

As I said these are max/mins, i.e. for s/haul new contract crew on eurofleet getting there and backs with lots of unused stby's £900, but people on old contracts with a bit of overtime £1700ish. As I said quote<I shall have a stab at guessing the take home pay - based on friends in the job and bar talk down route.>
I ommited s/haul Psr/CSD pay from my estimates as I don't have any friends/haven't had enough conversations downroute to come up with an accurate estimate. I hope that I have been in the right ball park. Its hard to tell as on one hand I'll talk to a new contract stdss with no nightstops on her roster who is distraught and then the next trip I'll be with a long haul PSR who is bragging that his/her take home is £3500.
For the record, I don't earn £5000 to £7000. When I started off in 1998 I was on £20k but now I'm on pay point 6 on 757/767 and my pay has been around the £3400 mark for the past 6 months, this has been due to high caps and a little overtime every month. Ordinarily it would have been about £3100.

Yes, you're right I was talking about LHR crews (don't fly with the LGW lot anymore!), I should have made this clear.
Cheers

35000 pound alright. You have to compare apples with apples. Yeh its alright if your earning that and living in Australia. A large pizza in London is not 8 aussie dollars.
My experience would say earning 35000 pound in London your lifestyle would be like earning 30,000 aus in Aus. Oh the sun doesnt shine much in Lon and theres no surf down the road.

All figures are monthly salary before taxes. We do not get sector pay, overtime pay, bar revenues or any of the other things mentioned on this thread. We do get daily allowances depending on the price level of the location where we overnight.
Flight Attendants depending on age and years with company:
€1672 - €2654
Assistant Purser on the 747/MD-11/767/777:
€2135 - €3701
Purser on the 737:
€2596 - €4335
Purser on the 747/MD-11/767/777:
€3023 - €4853
Holidays and work per month slightly worse than Air France but still pretty good.
Double salary in December of which the tax man takes half, holiday money paid out in May.
Due to high tax levels in Holland, take home pay rather reduced from original though.
Working a fixed 50% contract as a Purser on short haul, 22 years with the company and at 46 years of age, at the end of the month I get about €1400 put on my bank account.

Any crew doing long haul:
What sort of money do you earn when you do a trip to the carribean for four to five days? Just interested to find out if my company are offering a fair deal? Are you on an hourly rate from checkin to check out or a set amount for each trip?

i'm a british airways shorthaul lhr purser,i've done nearly 20 years and am on jobshare,which is a fixed working pattern of 6 days on 12 days off,my basic salary is therefore half the fulltime wage,my takehome pay including flight allowances and after the deduction of tax,insurance,pension etc is usually about 1000 pounds (never less than this),most i've taken home on part-time is 1500,so i suppose someone with similar seniority to me on fulltime shorthaul would be in the region of 2000 minimum,and that doesn't include overtime as i never do it,find it hard enough going to work as it is.

Just to give the numbers for a newjoiner for Emirates:
(got them from their webpage: http://www.emiratesgroupcareers.com as well as personal experience):
A three year renewable contract.
A tax-free starting salary of AED3,640 (approx. US$1,000) plus flying pay of approximately 600 USD per month.
--> hourly pay for a Grade 2 (working in Economy - that's where all start) is 39 Dhs at the moment as far as I know (~U$ 11) - we fly between 70-90 hours a month (counted pushback till engine-Shutdown) - So that adds up to another 700-1000 U$.
We fly longhaul and shorthaul mixed - on a layover we get allowances in the countries currency along with our roomkey (60-80 Euro in Germany for 24 hours, around 65 Pound in London, .... depending on destination)
Luxury furnished shared accommodation (own bedroom).
--> ususally: own bedroom, own bathroom, kitchen and living room shared.
Comprehensive medical coverage.
Free duty transport.
End-of-service benefits. A bonus is also payable on completion of the first three year contract.
--> Bonus 6000 Dhs after 3 years + return of the 2000 Dhs deposit which they deduct in the first year (167 Dhs / month).
Annual leave ticket to your home country.
--> this ticket brings you to your home-country - not necessarily to your hometown. Countries we fly to you only get to one of EK destiantions (i.e. if you are from Darwin you can get tickets to SYD, MEL, BNE - but not home), ...
Travel concessions on Emirates and other airlines.
EK has agreements with many other airlines - we can get either ID 75/90 or ZED-Tickets depending on the airline.
With the US$ being so low at the moment it might not seem like a huge salary for many, but all we earn is tax-free and with accomodation and everything paid for it is basicaly all pocked money.
We do not get christmas-money, but each year they set a target - once reached we get a bonus (usually in May) which can be everything from 2-11 weeks - depending on how good our year was (last year it was 8-9 weeks from our basic salary).
