EK payrise - finally?
Have heard from several sources the last few days that management "announced" a payrise in the neighbourhood of 10 - 15% in january at an instructors meeting a few days ago. Anyone??
- About bloody time if you ask me!
- Not even close to enough to stop the flow of people leaving or help us 3yr+ guys that look to be delayed for appx a year before we can enjoy captains pay on the Airbus fleet. That alone costs me some Dhs 100.000.-

Unless it comes from Idle or above, then its only rumor. Head of training, although connected has zip influence over pay.
Personally i have seen it all before, the rumor, promise of better things to come, string as many as possible along for a few months then announce 5% plus increment in May.

No, not quite 30%.
Base salary levels for all pilot grades will be increased by 27%, wef from 1st January 2007. The overnight allowances will be recalculated utilising an hourly duty rate, rather than calculated in local currencies. The housing / utilities allowance will increase by 10% effective July. The annual pay review will include another 3% (27+3=30, hence the 30% rumour)

Hi Guys
A very merry xmas and a very safe new year to you all
....... and for those that dont believe in Santa 
.....surely he must be real if we get a 27% payrise this year.
guys.....sorry to dissapoint you all.... but Santa doesnt live in the North pole with millions of Elves....nor does he work for EK.
He stopped coming to my place when I was about 7 or 8 yrs old
Off to the beach fellas ...... for my xmas and new year break.

Off the pay issue, if you a 3 year airbus f/o and you think you are going to wait another year for an upgrade you must have failed math....look at the numbers and start thinking of 2 years extra

Goatherd, please explain as you seem to have insider knowledge. Have you considered all the AB captains (42) that are going over to the cripple 7, plus the ones that are leaving ( I think 5 or 6 in Jan alone)
