Ryanair offers experienced commanders 100,000 pounds per annum after 3-5 years working in the UK.

What is the starting salary?

Thinking about income equivalency, is 100 thou a good salary?

I'm analizing the possibility, and any help would be greatly appreciated.

I currently live in South America, and I haven't lived in the UK since 1981.

Just to qualify a few points by Stoptherot who is otherwise pretty accurate:

......on basic pay only = !.5% pay rise.

......even then don't believe anything. Your T & Cs will be amended at will by the stroke of a pen.

Good luck

Hallo Guys,

just a question:

What can a FR Cpt expect to earn as "top salary" with and

without being supervisor,checker etc.., and what remains after

tax?

Please just true answers, and no rumours.

Thanks

Mike

I'm there 17 years and I,m on 73000 Euro.
I also get sector pay to cover crew meals,medical,uniform,pension,loss of licence,but it isn't sufficient and I have to eat into my basic to cover these.

Thank You.

73000 before or after tax? with or without flight pay?

I thought you guys were on £100,000 a year or is that just the adverts in Flight?

dream on sky9.if anyone can prove that they earn 100,000.i will give them 100,000.

I also did not belive when they have told me that, but is it true what is on ppjn? 85000 before tax + 20.000-25.000 flight pay tax-free?

That 73000 euro is before tax. There is no flight pay apart from that which i explained earlier.

So it is obviously a lie what is written on the homepage of Fr and also on ppjn.

Thanks, I have to wait for my contract, before I decide, but it does not sound good, what you say.

In my present company, after 15 years I can expect a net of 81000 a yaer.

Hi you all,

I just received a contract for DEC based in Stansted. Salary: 51.907 Pounds Sterling. This is Gross.

They say I will also be entitled to receive Flight Expenses as per the pilots working agreement.

But I live in another continent and have no idea of how much does this Flight Expenses represent, and on which basis is it paid. (per sector? Per flight hour?)

I would like to know also about TAX. Does anyone know where is it paid?? In Ireland? In England? And how much is the tax?

Too many questions, I know, but thank you all.

on £51907 Gross based UK you will get net £35929.98p Tax £127204 and National Insurance ( Brown Stealth Tax ) £3256.62 Net Salary £35929.98 ie £ 2994.16 p per month.

PS

I was earning that net salary as a B737 Captain 12 years ago in UK. Just imagine how prices have increased since then!!! Tells you something about the job.

2994 + Flight pay ???

Thanks a lot Thegypsy,

And do you know something about this Flight Expenses? Does it make any significant difference in the income?

The advert in Flight clearly stated that UK based Captains would receive £100,000 per annum in year 2. If that is not the case the advert is clearly incorrect and should be reported to the Advertising Standards Agency. Before I do so is there anyone in the UK who received in excess of that income in the last tax year?

I do not work for FR. I was merely stating the tax due on the Salary of £51907 Gross. If you have flight pay in addition then that will be extra. There might be special tax arrangements for flight pay which varies from company to company.

For tax details go to www.e-gismos.com/ukpay.asp it is all there

sector/flight pay recieved only after satisfactory completion of training.how long is training,the same as apiece of string.that is all the expenses you will recieve.

Anybody else who could add some facts???

Thanks !

Hi you all,

I just found out in ppjn those values for Ryanair sector pay:

Sector Pay:
0 - 3.5hrs £45
3.5 - 5hrs £80
5 - 7hrs £130
7+hrs £185

Of course those values are tax free. Could anyone CONFIRM those values are correct? I really depend on this to make up my mind.

Hello Lelac,

May I ask you what is shown as top salary in your contract?
