I wonder what the crowd reaction was like...

...but what about an increment ?

That's cool for me...
Got some spending money for the wife's summer holiday....

Everybody clapped and cheered of course. The office workers don't do any more work year on year. Still start and finish at the same time every day. Wonder what the EGHQ Costa contribution to the profit was?

Pay rise is usually announced in about a week. Once the euphoria over the profit share has died down.

rounds of raucous applause heard from the Gin Palace, apparently...........

Target lowered to 7.2 to accommodate the 5 weeks as a show of good faith.

Nancy61 10th May 2016 11:29

5 weeks bonus for 2016. Anyone have different info?

Lets hope the 'unshared' balance goes into a significant double digit pay rise - which is what really matters to us anyway!

axialflow 10th May 2016 11:31

Ok, whatevsss :hmm: on the profit share.

A serious increment (on top of the step) needs to be added now so we can start grocery shopping in Dxb again and not on layovers :{

Good faith??

Correcting myself, 7.2 is for next year...

Profit up 50%, Profit Share down nearly 50%. How does the company always manage to turn a win/win scenario into a loss?

What's the opposite of generous?

puff m'call 10th May 2016 12:31

Complete Joke!!:ugh:

sluggums 10th May 2016 12:32

What did we expect. Their contempt for us is well documented.

harry the cod 10th May 2016 13:34

Good plan DAYSEEMAL, then you can look as much of a idiot on the flight deck as you do on this thread!

The Company gives you 5 weeks extra pay, 5 weeks probably more than the majority of most airlines in this World, and you think a response like that is appropriate? What a prat. What would have made you happy? 8 weeks, 12 weeks? Personally I don't give a fudge about the profit share. I do, however, have concerns with the soon to be announced pay rise and the constant high hours we fly. That's where we should be focusing our energy.....

If you want the Company to treat you as a professional, behave like one.

Harry, don't go there... While I admire your pragmatism, don't make the schoolboy error of comparing us to other companies. What did Delta get in the past, eh?

Let people vent. It's all we can do when we're being shafted, yet again.

fatbus 10th May 2016 13:39

Some "pilots" need to grow up. You guys sound so pathetic. Sad to be associated with this group of pilots.

harry the cod 10th May 2016 13:48

Sluggums

"What did Delta get in the past eh?" To be honest, I don't know, but perhaps you should ask that very same question to a few of the Delta guys that came to EK during the 2002/3 downturn, the time they were raped of their entire pensions and many were furloughed or lost their commands.

Good point though! :ok:

Delta got over 20% of their wages in the form of a Bonus but the company is trying to their Bonus away.
I bet no Delta pilot flew anywhere near our yearly total yet made more money than us both in the form of wages and company profit.
There was a severe worldwide downturn after the terrorist attacks but Delta pilots and most other airlines voted to get rid of their pensions and take a pay cut. Look what it has done for them now. Short term pain for long term gain.
I wish I had a Green Card or an exit Card.
5 weeks after 1026 flying hours last 12 months? What a joke! Is flying us 11% over the yearly max professional? Shut up and like it, I think NOT!
