Australian carriers' wages?
 

Hello there,
I was dropped on my head as a child and can't seem to find simple solutions to simple questions...

Where do I get info regarding wages paid by Australian carriers?

thanks

microc,

General guide a 747 Captain of reasonable seniority is on 350K AUD+ and an A380 Captain is on +5% less they fly less atm so about the same. Compared to that "extreem" a 737/767 Capt domestic is averaging, atm, around 200K to 220K right down to V Aus F/O's on sfo. J* Capt maybe 230K but lots of private deals done so no one really know what the other person is getting - bit like post the 1989 pilots dispute. New entry is the J* cadet couse which will see applicants seriously screwed over for a very long time, they will have to work a second job just to eat crusts and passengers will die visa vie what has recently happend with some loco/operated by co's in the states etc. In short we are a basket case and untill there is a body count no one will be accountable.

Come on down....:}

There is a website www.pilotjobsnetwork.com
It listed companies by region and type, with details on T and C's.
However, last time i checked it was displaying a malware warning??

Qantas, Virgin, Jetstar, Q-Link and Rex are all covered by EBAs. There is a government website which lists all EBA and they are available to the public. www.fairwork.gov.au

All are aircraft type based with either years of service or hours on type increments and varying daily/hourly allowances.

There is also a big difference in working conditions in the EBAs with some CAO 48 duty limits and dispensations and others on fatigue based rostering, more or less days off a roster and between 4-8 weeks anual leave etc..

They are very complicated even in the one company. For example in Qantas there is a big difference in pay and conditions between a longhaul 747 crew and a domestic 737 crew. In some companies the additionals and allowances may only be $5-$10 thousand and others can almost double your anual salary.
