If the order is confirmed, it can start earlier.

assuming you may be an insider, what exactly do expats face? Because unfortunately some of us are pretty desperate just to get the hours and go somewhere better.

as an expat you will be treated a bit better than the turkish guys, especially regarding rostering (5 block off-days, in total and average you will have more than 8 days off per month which is not the case for turkish pilots)

the conditions depend highly on the fleet you will join. you'll find the best conditions of course in the wide body fleets (B777/787 and A350), followed by A330, thereafter A320 and last & least B737 (a lot of legs and considerably less total salary plus bad destinations plus a lot of AJET flights)

In the last years (except during the pandemic days) in average (including all extra payments like bonuses, profit share etc)
- a F/O earns 5500 € net (narrow body) / 7000 € net (wide body) approximately
- a CPT 8500 € net (narrow) / 10500 € net (wide body and instructors)
these average payments didn't change much or even decreased a little bit in the last years

yes, the lira is a pain but TK is increasing the salary on a regular basis (every 6 months).

atmosphere is friendly, salary is not bad, you'll be fine against the inflation, the location is close to europe and there are more than 1 flight to most destinations. moreover istanbul is a huge city with lots of opportunities for social life. If you are looking to build hours, I recommend. B737 fleet has too many sectors unfortunately. We are expecting it will be better for good in 1.5 years when AJET operations are over. Also you'll have widebody upgrade opportunity even if you start at Narrow Body
