Monthly salary of £139,634, includes £4,000 in appearance bonuses( even though I have red hair!) but the really unfare thing is I get deducted £65 for meals.

Hi D.
my views are personal, and other colleagues might think it differently; I believe that we might loose some benefits from the privitisation, but much depends on who will buy us. I believe that it is worth loosing some benefits if the privatisation will mean a better organized Company which will be able to employ us in a better way. Today, altough we do have some good benefits, relationship with HR Dept are terrible, roster management and bidding system are awful and we spend a lot of time away from home just sitting around airports and hotels, which makes very long duty periods anyway.
Well, let's hope that AF will buy us and give us the same contract of their crews
regards

Well, whatever you opinions on footballers salaries, at least they pay tax. Which is more than can be said for the likes of a certain retailer who 'resides' in Cyprus and pays bugger all.
It actually makes me more sick when I hear of fund managers receiving massive bonuses for reaching mediocre targets and those wealthy self employed types who pay £6.79 tax each year after 'costs & expenses'.
At least with footballers we get an excuse to spend a couple of hours down the pub every week watching them roll around on the floor.

ATC trainee (18 months)
NET salary per month 3000-3600 euro (up and down quite a lot) and that includes expat allowance
10% pension and 1.5% health insurance taken at source.
4 on/2 off and 40 days holiday a year.
Nice money for a trainee but no job security until qualified of course, can expect to double above salary on validation and triple it after 5-6years and having a couple of sproggs.
Looked closely at flying but judging by some of the salaries in this thread glad i didnt

9 Years as a Royal Navy Officer. £2559 net per month to sell your soul to the state so that some numb nuts can turn round and tell you "Well that's life in a blue one", after they have got you out of bed at 3 am and sent you to sea for 3 months.
Out of here April 2008 to train as a......Pilot. Probably be out of work for years though when the recession hits (which it will).
Christ, I got out of bed the wrong side today!

easyJet Line Training Captain paying 10% into the company pension scheme and company pays a further 7%. Around £5,000 UK Sterling per month net. Also receive once per year a net payment of about £2,300 UK Sterlng 'loyalty bonus'.
Further bonuses include gifts of shares and options which look like they will be worth around £30k as a one-off payment in December. Also various share schemes in operation which look like they could be very good saving in the long term. Can't rely on the money from them but overall a good deal.
