Flight Planners Salaries.

Hi,

I'm interested in a career in Flight planning but I'm finding it hard to find out what the average starting off salary is for Trainees and what's the average progression for 5-10 years service.

....the reason I ask is I may have to re-locate the family if accepted and I dont envisage skulking around the breadline for ever!

Also, if anyone has any info or comments on the Jeppesen flight planning course, The company itself or anything related would be much appreciated.

-Giro.

I worked for a planning company in the States.

Started in 1997 for around the mid 20's and 10 years later I was making in the mid 80's.

You really need to state where you live, the difference in salary between the USA and rest of the world is immense.... for example our new dispatchers earn US$700 per month!

Hi,

Yeah sorry, where you live makes a big difference in this sector. I live in London and hopefully will be working from Gatwick, U.K.

Cheers.
