.. What would happen if a payrise was awarded to one group and not the other? Drama! Give it to the FO and the captains will leave plus the incentive to become a captain would equally diminish. Give it to the captains and the FO will jump ship or never show up to the courses...

Dont read anything into the letter only being sent to captains. The cant fit the whole corps into the auditorium.

They will only pay 1 Dhs over what they need to, to change the trend. Obviously. The danger in offering too little, is that it will not change the trend. Offering too much in financially unsound.

I think you will find that this is just the annual pay review for the office boys. We have already had ours and got 8%. There will be nothing for us. The only reason we were invited is because the person who sent the email pressed the button that includes our pay grade, so it went to all "managers' of which we are considered to be. If it was specific to us it would have come through flight ops not CC

Funny cigarette anybody??!!

C'mon guys! What are you smoking? That stuff is not legal round here.....

Obviously it's managed to disconnect some people from reality! A second payrise for pilots in as many months??!?!?!

I gotta get me a packet of those cigarettes!!!.....Hey Mun....cooool.....check out that pig flyin' by dude....wooooow...

Seriously though......Well said Vorsicht......This meeting is not for us, and if it was, it would be to explain the logic of the payrise that we ALREADY received, how they arrived at the number of 8%...etc etc....

And if I'm wrong, then I guess there's going to be a bigger meeting at the IV, a LOT of pints, and a lot of little frogs needing wheelchairs!

pay rise for EK core grades:

7% increase to basic salary band (this means that depending where you are in the salary band you might get anywhere from just under 4% to 7%)
3% Merit rise
10% Utilities
10% Transport allowance.

So relax, Pilots got more than the rest of us

Assuming you mean "right" as in correct and not "Wright" as in those pioneer flying chaps, then, yes, you are correct.

The pay increase was for the core EK grades 1 to 10.
