Terms and endearment Sky Europe

Anybody with experience with this company?

Bond involved, schedules, base and salaries (both Capt and FO) etc all info is of interest. Maybe somebody can post this on PPJN.COm as well! (PM me otherwise!)

Thanks in advance

I think the bond lies around 14K/19K euros all after type, reduced by 1/48 every month. Salaries varies of course, but I think about 1500e a month in the start, and increasing from there. Bases are Bst, Kosice, and Budapest I believe. I assume they will schedule you for the maximum legal limit, like any other cost effective airline.

Off the-shelf beer at BTS (Bratislava, Slovakia) comes at about 0,4 EUR. Expect the payscale to move within comparable relations to your (presumably western-ish) homeground. PPRuNe attendee M.85 would be heading towards the end of line-training with SkyE.

Cheers,
FD.

Thanks for that already, what is the bond for rated pilots if any?

Dunno. Let's hear from M.85, he was rated beforehand.


Cheers,

That sounds optimistic, I got a saying for that: "A day late and a dollar short".

The only treatment that I expect in these parts is the no vaseline treatment.

It's a grammar problem, sorry pals. What I ment to say was: beer is 0,4 EUR. If British/Irish is 1,6 EUR, same logic applies to wages expect to earn about one fourth of LCC pay there. I recall M,85 to say he'd get less than CC in London. Same ballpark then, agree?

less than a CC in london but flying at 36000ft above the Alps with great crews is better than being on the ground and getting turned down for airport handling jobs...
Guys i understand you need to know about the payscale and roster,some of you may have a family..but rememebr its a central europe LOWCOST and fairly new..if you want to work its the place to be but like every good investor you have to look in the long term..sky will become big very big i have no doubt..our planes are packed...give away to recieve even more..its our philosophy...

All the best.

Ps : I have finished line training last week..flew 97 hours this month..
