15.000€ a month? 
maybe the month the have to spend in Sudan...
I know some guys there and although no too unhappy, they recognize the pay doesn't compensate the nightmare in Sudan. btw they don't volunteer for that!
Anyway, I won't play your game, I won't defend Wx basically cause it's not my business but let me tell you that '' is a very disrespectful word to define a company with much better discipline than yours, I wonder how you'd describe how things are done at SWI 
Regarding the weather, you're right, much better in Spain, even better in Sudan! enjoy it! and enjoy DGAC as well!
and btw enjoy your S226, E120 or Atr while waiting for an upgrade to a 737 now that they can get as many 737 pilots from FUA as they like. Not a great time for aviation in Spain sadly.
Don't take it personally but if you give this figures somebody could get confused and think that SWI is a great place to work!

Dinocraft 9, obviously the dark, cold and wet weather is not good for your mood. I don't now, get out of your bedsite, and go for some jogging in london city between drunk and druged and depress people! go to eat fish and ship, its not good for colesterol but it's smells strong.
You know probabaly better my company than I know, but whatever you want to say, you shoud better open a thread on my company and discuss about it. The sad thing is this thread is about CITYJET LIFE MONEY AND SECURITY, and instead of answering question I ask to clarify, you dont answer at all (shame on you) and you appear only to scream on my company, but, hey, this IS NOT the topic!!!!
Now I have to go it's another perfect day to go out with friends.
By the way SWT prefers some internal moves for reasons you seems to ignor
... and I have never go to sudan. B737s fly for DHL europe. 
I wish you to be happy my friend.

Last reply to you:
Shame on you for being so disrespectful and bad mannered, I am sorry if don't have the education to express yourself in a more polite way according to the rest of the posts here, this is not extracrew.com!
I do not want to know more than I do of your company, it's more than enough but what I know for sure is that you had to pay for your TR.
At Wx you don't, but you have to pass a fair selection process not based on your budget but on some attributes you seem to lack.
This is not a post about SWI and I'm not pretending it to be, my replies are about the way you judge and critisize the others when you're not able to get the info by yourself
. I'd suggest you to have a look at ppjn.com to find out what's the basic salary and the sector allowance in WX. Maybe if you had been nicer and more humble you would have got what you asked for...
Hasta nunca!

here it come the stupid answer: "have a look on ppjn.com"...
I suggest we close down PPRUNE.com because ppjn is so fantastic although it does NOT answer to the questions I ask about CITYJET (what is the basic salary after englsih tax? how much you earn if you get seek and cant fly like a rat doing so many nightstops in a bedroom with no food?), You're lack of answer is a big answer anyway and it confirm the what my spanish friends (cabine crew) think about this company! 
Have a loong and peaceful carrere in cityjet, London.

If you had bothered to read some of the posts, you would have gathered that tax is not paid in the UK but in Ireland.
Whatever you point is, foul language will not help you get the answers you are looking for.
If you are that interested in what the wage scales are perhaps you should call the company and ask them.

This has really descended in to a cat fight! I wont add to it,simply to say the tax thing in London will be an interesting reveal for Gordon Brown when he comes looking,and he will do.Its not only the French who want their pound of flesh!,Im quite amused also,as to how upset some WX lovers get by the posts here.Any negative towards WX,and theyre livid,losing sleep,lashing out with pathetic diatribes,do you really think its that important?
As another has suggested,in these days,although WX is crap,better to have a job,take the money,keep your head down,and in a couple of years,move.Providing there are jobs available.At the moment,crap is better than nothing,
ciaoza.

To those who responded to my earlier query, I thank you.
To our colleague SSS, might I suggest this is not the time to tell us how great things are in sunny Spain when another of your airlines appears to have gone down the tubes today and many people are doubtless concerned for their future.

from a flight crew perspective, and for the aircraft size/pax load in question, 2+2 is a more financially viable and a more operationally standard option. Sorry to sound mean but sometimes the truth hurts.

I have some aptitude tests with Cityjet next week. The only details I have been given are;
The tests are (non aviation related) Technical Abilities Tests and a Personality Questionnaire. You do not need to bring anything with you, as all items will be provided. The tests will take approximately 4 hours.
Can anyone shed some light on what is involved? Any help appreciated.
Many thanks.

Hi, will also be down next week for the aptitude testing.
Regarding flying with CityJet, going in as a non type rated FO will I have to pay for my own RJ rating or will there be some sort of bond involved?
Thanks

Hey
You will most likely be bonded €25.000 for 3 years with a monthly reducing bond. Also during training you will only get 50% basic pay and after your line check you will get 75% basic pay until the end of the first year.

I'm reviving the thread a bit, but my question has been unanswered. I'm going through the process of assessments with cityjet/fte right now and only have 1 phase to go.
I found on the internet that the base salary for SO or FO is both around 25,000 to 26,000 euros p.a.
In previous posts, it says if you work hard doing overnights ect.. you get a lot of money. How much p.a can you estimate to earn on a 6/2 roster with cityjet including the base salary AFTER tax and all the bonuses?
thanks

As LCY based SO, this year, in december I will have received E24000,- basic salary after tax, plus E21000,- sectorpay which is taxfree. So that makes E45000. I will have flown 620 hours, most of the time on a 6/3 roster. Average of 4 SBY's a month. Used all of my 27 annual leave days.
Happy landings

I see that PPJN is now quoting a fixed roster of 5/2 from 1 Feb this year. Is this correct - and what has happened to the 6/3 from 6 months after line check? This seems quite a degradation?
