Ex Expats?
Reasons for the turnback? From what was mentioned before, some of the little indian boys, when the going got tough, they just couldn't get it going....now they're going again??? Others went back for the heck of it, but still others went back because Cebpac runs a charity ward....a hero can be a zero depending on whose viewpoint is seen. The path of least resistance usually leads downhill.
True expats can be a shot in the arm for an ailing company. Filipinos are just too proud to admit that we are an undisciplined lot. Pwede na, bahala na, okay na yan is the norm. Maybe, just maybe, given a chance, things could be a lot better if these new expats can inject a different culture, a ray of sunshine, into the cesspool that Philippine aviation has become. Just my two euros worth. |

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1) What are the SIB and IBP? The SIB and IBP are two schemes for the Pilot compensation and benefits package. SIB is the existing program that started January 1, 2011. This included a productivity rate improvement and allows a pilot to receive a service incentive at the end of 3 years after any outstanding bond with the company. Should a pilot reach the compulsory retirement (65 yrs) in the middle of the program, he will be entitled to a prorated computation. The IBP is a program that incorporates an increase in productivity pay effective April 1, 2011 and includes additional medical, back-of-the-clock flights, rest-day duty and vacation leave buy-out benefits. 2) Do all pilots need to select between SIB and IBP? Yes. Each one needs to formally express his scheme of choice by signing an agreement that stipulates the package he/she prefers. 4) If I do not make a choice and fail to sign the agreement on or before March 31, what will happen? If a pilot fails to sign and submit before the deadline, default package will be SIB the current outstanding program. The default or chosen scheme will remain for the duration of your employment. While the figures and benefits used are valid April 1, 2011 onwards for IBP (Option 2) any future adjustments of benefits, flight classification for back-of-the clock, future vacation leave conversions, medical coverage guidelines may still be adjusted by management as deemed beneficial to all. 5) When is the deadline to inform People Department of my desired option? Deadline is 1830H March 31, 2011. This means that it is better to submit your form as soon as you can and anticipate the need to submit prior to any outstation assignment, RON duties and any unforeseen needs to go on leave. We encourage everyone to personally see us at the People Department before the deadline to take advantage of being advised on which scheme works best for you. 6) Why is there a provision for 90-days notification period of resignation with IBP? The 90-day separation notice is a courtesy to the company to provide ample time to minimize operational disruption. 7) Will the 90-day notice also mean that my last 3-month salary will be withheld until my clearance is processed? No. There will be no change to existing policy and practice. 8) If a pilot fails to tender 30-day or 90-day notice period, whichever is applicable, what will happen? Should you fail to provide agreed notice period of separation it will be considered as a breach of contract. 9) If I am up for recurrency within the 90-day notice period, will I still be slated to undergo recurrent training? The purpose of the 90-day notice period is to minimize operational disruption. The company, at its discretion, will continue to ensure that you are able to be a productive member of the team during this period. 10) If my published schedule for this month indicates 10 days off and I was asked to report during one of the 10 off-days, will I be paid? No. The company will guarantee you a minimum of 8 days off. If for operational reasons the company requests you to work on any day off below the minimum of 8 days an additional allowance will be paid. |
Talking walls
Talking walls are but mere echoes
of things that have been once said What you want to hear can be found in the still, small voice beneath the thunder and the rain and the earthquake of the exodus listen very well for it for it may speak the wisdom of the ages |
with the exodus that happened, maybe its time for bupak to revive and give again MPL sponsorships. besides, many Clark Av products are now FOs with them. right? :ok:
|
How many bupakers are leaving for AA? Any confirmed numbers?
|
will cebu pacific hire a foreign national with just Type on Airbus A320.
no hours on type just the type rating... |
Does anybody have any contact info to apply, other than the contract agents? I went thru their website and their job profile company but it won't accept my info. I am a current 320 Captain and might want to come for 3-6 months. Always wanted to come to the PI.
|
Hey Probe,
I applied through one of the contract companys and got an immediate reply. Also looking forward to flying in PI for a couple of months. They said the start date is April 15th. Good luck! |

Before anyone gets any ideas, please be informed that the reason behind this ad is that the current Assistant Chief Pilot Airbus, Capt. Allan Garces was recently promoted to Chief Pilot Standards and Evaluation, thus creating the vacancy. Having said that, everyone is now welcome to have their ideas.:) |
|
is there any concrete information that 5J is hiring expat FO as well??
|
Six Euro FO's started and four US Capt's on Monday the 4th April. Two of them left that night. One because he would not wear the Orange shirt of CEBU.
Flt op's continue to deteriorate with longer duty days and sporatic schedules. But the 20 minute turn arounds with brake temps around 300 during takeoff still annoy me. Pay from Contract is late again this month. New job offer on 350 today, back is packed. |
Rubis,
I like orange shirt! I'm an F/O with ATPL, A320TR with low time on it and.. Ah ex-pat of course. Do you think I can wear it?? Happy landings everybody:ok: |
Rubis
so just curious that they left coz they didnt wear the orange shirt,why ? why is that? |
Situation Update
5J situation is getting "WORST". The recent FDCI is again a "Recycled Cheap Strategy" by the Management.
Cancelling vacation leaves followed by forced leaves has been repeatedly done in the past to save money for the Company at the expense of the Pilots. := I am waiting for the next FDCI to cancel "Sick Leaves" due to Operational Requirement...:) When the same situation in the past repeats itself, it will have a "Tsunami Effect"...Watch Out!!! It will take only a "Mustard Seed of Leadership" to make a difference. BUT??? |
Why, what's up with the Orange shirt? Is that the company's uniform for pilots now?
|
I'm sure the "boys" like it when you wear it. Advertising is directed at a specific market.
This is basic Freud..straight out of the books. Take some one with little esteem or qualifications, give them a job that pays little and works their ass off. Ask them to put in extra hours with no extra pay and break basic regulations to make to company profitable so it can survive and you can have a new Orange shirt. Maybe an extra one if you get "employee of the month". But if you can put those extra shirts in the bank towards your retirement, or buy food to feed your family with those shirts, then maybe it's a good deal. I'll bet Lance uses his extra shirts to pay for his BMW. How much you spose that shirt costs? 500 peso's at best. So get out your abacus and see how many shirts per hour you are making each payday. Jet Blue uses Freddie Mac coupons, probably cause they are cheaper than shirts. You might want to research which market the shirt is directed towards. :D |
exodus continues..........2 sets leaving every month from the Airbus group. :D:D:D
|

The same way you should go out, the door.

re: memo on pilot flight bags of CP
First, it cannot be mandatory. Otherwise, what is the legal basis? What if I have my own? Pilots should be allowed to use their own provided it conforms to standards. Second, if pilots are compelled to avail of the flight bags, the pilots should have the option of surrendering or returning the bag instead of paying. The bag should likewise not be more expensive compared to its commercial price. Third, CP cannot simply deduct the amount from the pilot's salary. There should be a written authorization from the pilot expressly allowing the specific amount to be deducted. :oh: :p :) |
Re-Grapevine News and Victorinox Flight Bag
Re-Grapevine News:
LG will really match the salary package for Pilots with that of Air Asia...BUT after 5 years... when all of his Pilots are gone. Simply a "Low Cost" strategy !!! Re-Victorinox Flight Bag: The bag is as cheap as the brain of the one who implements the policy of recall or refund. He is more concerned of the cost of the bag rather than improving the working conditions of Pilots. Simply another "Low Cost" strategy of a no brainer. Solution: "HIRE MONKEYS AND PAY BANANAS." :) |
very well said arigato......
Pilots that have left for AirPhil Express, Zest, and SEAir have made the right decision to move on, the red eye flights are now harder to manage in terms of scheduling. more and more people are calling in sick........:= |
Whats the problem with the expats, I heard there having lots of fun, but you never know
|

cebpac hater
9 ball
you are obviously not a cebpac lover. i am. and i am no masochist. this airline feeds my family and gives us a comfortable life. there are no five red eye flights a month. maximum is three. more than three you get paid extra. pilot choice. eight days off guaranteed. less than eight, you get paid your daily rate. pilot choice. no fly. no pay. are you a pilot? a cebpac reject? or simply a born sour graper. get laid. |
hello parsifal,
really looking forward to work with 5j .I do have 5000+ hrs on turboprops & also hold A320 type rating with 200 hrs of flight time will they accept it. |
