Market Rate for cabin crew
 

In view of all that is happening at the moment ,it would be interesting to try and determin what is currently market rate pay for cabin crew.I realise that there are perks that vary from company to company but what, as a monthly average would you be taking home net ,over one year as a new entrant on a full time contract.
Any Virgin crew posting,please include youre downroute payments in youre average.

LGW BA starter net monthly average £1400 approx (includes downroute allowances)

Qantas LHR Flight Attendant/Business First Flight Attendant
1200 GBP per month approx
(there are cash allowances at the hotel upline, depends on each individual how much you save and take home)

Flitegirl

easyJet SCCM LTN

Cabin Crew Pay
 

Lufthansa 1400 Euro gross, which is about 1000 Euro per month net, no payrise for six years, thats why the new ones can apply for government aid to be able to pay for their apartements. Most of them have a second job of any kind, just to secure a certain living standard.

Maximum Salary, after 23 years in service, is 3500 Euro net.

There is still a shift-working-additional money, which is about 16,3% of gross-salary, but this one is tax-free!

So for the newcomers it is really hard, especially because there is no payrise for six years. You even get much more at Easy Jet and even Ryanair!

For the Lufthansa Management the Cabin Crews are still to expensive, they would favour a rumanian Lufthansa with local Cabin Crew for 500 Euros a month, getting money from the EU also for funding a company there!

Whilst I'm not CC, I recall in the 70s and 80s pilots on JAT (Yugoslavia State Airline) were all captains, just so they could make a living wage - and that wasn't very much!

CX 1300 usd per month.

Eastern European RYR Cabin Crew are about £200/night each whereas Morrocan EK crew are about 200 Dhs/night for the pair.

Including allowances at VS anything from 1300-1800 a month, My average being around 1500.

GBP

Qantas LHR Based Crew. £1200-£1400 nett p/m in bank account
This varies as your sector pay and excess hours are paid in too. We only do Asia flights (Long Haul) so an excess can happen frequently. Regular duty time is max 16hour @ 16.01 extra £40 . I do average 4 trips or less a month (full time) Usually 4 day trips. Can be 5day at times.
Down-line pay is good depending on where you go. Singapore is best then Hong Kong then Bangkok. Bangkok is best for shopping so unless your saving you down-line pay its still really good money for local purchases.

So in a nutshell... Including down-line pay i take between £1500 - £1900pm
But remember all purchases down-line come out of that ie food/beer/tv porn..oops! so in reality its more like £1500 average.

Thomson:

Junior crew member on short haul only - average of £1200 a month.
On longhaul - between £1400 and £1600

Air New Zealand LHR Crew

ECONOMY £1200/1300, Business £1400/1500 net monthly in bank account

PLUS

LAX 4 days trip, about 335 US$ ( about 220 GBP )
HKG 4 days is 2900 HK$ ( about 250 GBP )

The GBP is very low at the mo so allowances are good because of the good exchange rate

Average 4 trips a month (full time)

thanks for info
 

Hi Macnemo,

Thankyou for the Air New Zealand pay info,when do you think thay will next be taking LHR crew on?

Not sure but anyway I don't think anytime in the near future

BA LHR shorthaul (3yrs service) average £1500 a month including all allowances. This figure is after all downroute spends have been deducted but on Eurofleet we don't spend that long anywhere so don't spend a huge amount personally!

Senior flight stewardess at EK five years in company earning about 18,000 dhs per month in the bank. Depending on exchange rate it's between £3000-3500, this is made up of monthly salary, cash allowances downroute, living out allowance (opting not to live in the free company provided accommodation) and transport allowance (as not living in EK accommodation therefore not using free company transport).

Senior cabin crew at wizzair - maximum 1800 euros/month, including everything.

Averge income - 1500/month

We also open-close doors for dep/arr!

Anyone noticed a difference this month with the new tax deductions?

easyJet Paris-CDG :

F/A : approx 2200 euros net/month
SCCM : approx 2900 euros net/month.

Cabin Crew only pay taxes on domestic flights in France (which was nearly nothing last year for me...about 100 euros for the year, so basically it's tax-free for us here)
