Is it true that 2 days worth of pay are removed from every week, when calculating the amount of money to be given for the 14 weeks? (So effectively, instead of being 98 days worth of $$$, its 70 days?) Thats what ive heard from a few senior captains in the airline recently.

That would effectively reduce the profit share by almost 30% :ugh:

no, is bs. Same rumour every year... but untrue..

Bonus = basic x 12 x weeks of bonus / 52

9+3 plus a bit on flight and overtime? Nothing spectacular, but better than the nothing so confidently predicted above!!
