A close friend worked for them a couple of years ago. Expect low pay and to be on call most of the time although the crews are friendly and in a general way the environment within the company is ok.

According to my friend it was, for F/O, around 1,600 Euros after taxes plus 50 Euros per diem, for Captain a little different since they had individual working agreements, but as I said it was 2 or 3 years ago.

Well, certanly some months would be better other would be worse. Euroatlantic is an ACMI operator with few fixed contracts, most are short term notice. I think they do the Hajj quite often with crews being out for a month or even more. On that case take home pay can easily reach 3,500 (I recall my friend saying something about the per diems being a little higher during the Hajj). Expect to fly B757 and B767 both pax and cargo. They use to give a year bonuses to every employee.
Hope that helps.

I should start saying that euroatlantic (MMZ) is a very special airline.
The take home salary on a FO is 1600 Eur , after 1 or 2 years you can get 1800, 2000 max. (after tax)
As said before capts salary varies case by case.
Beeing a charter/ACMI company it operates on a very short notice, meaning you have to be ready for pretty much everything . One can very easily spend 1 month at home doing absolutely nothing, or away from home based out of (anywhere) for another month. So its a constant gamble.
The perdiems are correct 50 eur a day, before it was paid in USD so there was a slight improvement on that one.
A very good thing about the company is the atmosphere. Expect to be in a big family.
Schedulle its the hard one. Basically you are on call 24/7. In one day they can call you to fly to london, the next to maldives, or jedah, or even to the falkland islands ( malvinas), you never , never know.
One can allways reject a flight, but are you really going to turn down a flight because you are supposed to be OFF when you dont fly for 15 days or so.
Cheers,

A big question mark. One can make from 300 to say 600 maybe. It allways depends on the contracts ,flights the company has.
As for the freigther I think they have a secured contract right now, som maybe you can expect some good hours
