Can anyone elaborate what is covered by basic salary and what extra payments one can expect/ is entitled to? Does EK still pay for deadheading and standby but does not pay for sim (that's what i gathered from old forum discussions..)?

1 month for a failed sim. Auto thrust and FDs now available to allow for those that can't do it by themselves. A video of the Sim event will be emailed, along with a list of common errors.
As someone said, the standard is almost still high.

The vast majority of deadheading is linked to freighter trips on the 777. If you are not freighter qualified or on the 380, then expect to deadhead once in a blue moon.

It’s too sad, cause you passed in 90% of the whole process, them the computer said NO, NOT TODAY. :/

Hourly pay and productivity pay is calculated based on scheduled block hours. Deadheading counts towards this but standby and your own simulator sessions do not. If however you are rostered to 'fill' a seat on a sim support duty, then that will accrue hourly pay.

Flying pay is fine, its the salary that is too small. Flying pay does not count towards Provident Fund, and as such its a common trick to increase that and not the salary. As for productivity pay, you are right it is too small.

Interesting... is it 1:1, i.e. one sim hour = one BH worth of flight pay? does it matter if it's upgrade / conversion training or recurring training (license renewal..)?

Not anymore .... if you have only failed the sim now you can continue through the rest of the process. If all else is passed you can comeback within a year and only have to do the sim
You come back in a month and do the sim. That would be the same sim profile as before. Now with flight directors and autothrust.
