Indian pilots salary terms changed. unilaterally.... violating the earier contract

The same has been deferred till 01 Feb pending further study of the legalities....

Cat and mouse game.. what else can be said.

I am not looking for package.
I just want to know, post merger whether the salary has been paid on time or not.

I know for fact that KF red pilots , even locals , have not been paid

Sorry

Cannot help you there

For all expats thinking of Kingfisher

I know expat salary is

US$ 11500 if you opt for 6 weeks on and 2 weeks off

or US$ 12650 if you opt for 22 weeks on and 4 weeks off

plus US$ 1800 rental allowance

Most of us expats sold their leave back to the company and the guys on the

6/2 got paid US$ 24800

and the guys on

22/4 got paid US$ 27100

So they pay very well and it is a nice place to work

Its a startup airline and has all the hiccups that most startups have in their first teething years.

If you are a TRE you get US$ 2000 and the choice of being based in Bombay which has a lot of life or Bangalore (mid sized city in the mid east of India)

Fleet is 5 330's and 5 options more

Destinations are London Hong Kong Singapore and Bangkok

Most Pilots are Indian, expats are few and are a mix of Canadians from Air Canada, Sri Lankan nationals from SriLankan Airlines and Lebanese from MEA

I would reccomend

therightstuff - looks you work for another airline (JET?), or flying widebody ? Salary and options for KF A320/ATR is much lower, and it is usually on the account not the first day but the first week +/-. Deccan salary is always late as far as I know.Kings of foggy times at KF ...

Just to clarify the last post. It is probably a nice peaceful place to work if you are on the widebody. For everyone else the rostering is awful. Apart from that it is a nice peaceful place to work.

Are Kingfisher actually recruiting at the moment? I thought employment opportunities there had pretty much ground to a halt?
