All of the above, plus a (not guaranteed but so far always paid) 3% increment per year. Increases to base for the last two years have been 10% and 6% (plus introduction of Flight Pay) respectively.

I haven't been here for quite sometime but reading this trash has been humerous to say the least. In fact I haven't posted for so long I had to accept the forum rules again, so I must be welcoming, courteous, cautious, appropriate and ethical. Well, here goes;
Mensaboy,
You are a TWIT.
Best regards,
Kiwi.
Ps, Gidday Muttley how are you?

The pay on that website is about three years old....not updated. It's about 30% higher than posted....maybe more just to be fair.

Payscales figures are correct...the website has been out of date for awhile....6600US for a Captain is NOT correct, nor is the FO figures....have a closer look. It's about 8200 US year 1 Captain now plus the new productivity and currency protection.
Bikker....whatever. You don't have to yell. The numbers are wrong as to what I have seen.

That site says first year Captain pay is $6600 US base which equals 24240 UAE Dirhams. I'm sure you know that figure is now just under 30000.It also doesn't mention flight pay.
People come here for accurate information. If you are not willing to give it, perhaps you shouldn't post.

Who cares about the correct amount in dollars - unless youre an american. I took the figures from the web site and only the numbers for a captain - I didnt post the FO side - looks pretty correct to me. Including the new hourly rates.
I wish they were higher too, but that the reality today.

Things have changed rapidly....We use to all care about the dollar, but it seems it is on a steady decline, I agree... It certainly is a real concern and the currency protection is limiting to say the least. Those of us from Europe, Canada, and the lands down under might be in for more downside

Mensa Little Boy,
Better hope a North American Union never comes to pass because we both know that half your country would empty out and move south in short order. Can't say as I've ever met a Yank who wants to move to the Great White North, though I do see the occasional article about an aging hippie or some such.
I lived in Toronto for a year and very much liked the people, maybe because they don't exude your type of obvious inferiority complex. I sincerely hope your strange method of webboard therapy helps.
By the way, if you had done any real flying in North America, you'd have often heard Air Canada and Jazz types reading back 2-4-OH, you w-a-n-k-e-r.
If you find this to be too harsh for your fragile ego, please be advised that this is mild stuff compared to what I've heard your french speaking countrymen say about you swell "Canadians." And they like Americans.
