Sorry you never got passed being a trolleydolley and always envy those that are twice as young, earn three times your salary and bear a greater amount of responsibility from day one on the job. (Which is exactly the reason why they earn more)
Musn't be easy to look at but be a sport and suck it up.
Always gives me a tickle when CC want to start comparing our job vs. anything out there and saying that ours is an easy buck in comparison. Walk the walk if it's so easy is my suggestion.

Ignore the troll. Its contribution to discussion was absolutely worthless but it got what it wanted - your reaction.

Market economics at work or what?

Do you really get a 10% performance bonus plus the 5% loyalty each year?

ezy A320 SFO Spain
Basic: 75600 euro/year
Performance bonus 2009: 7560 euro/year
Loyalty bonus (5%): 3780 euro/year
Flight Duty Pay: +-8000 euro/year
So we gross around 95000 euro/yr
Take-home pay after tax is 4700 euro basic plus 500-1200 euro Flightpay.
Roster is as mentioned by zumzum. 36 bookable holidays means:
book 5 days get 4+5+3=12 days. So effectively we get 7 blocks of 12 days off per year with one single day left.
Not leaving for greener pastures at the moment.

2 questions
What is the performance pay based on?Is it just if the company turns a profit however small.
Have you heard of much expansion at MAD to come, the transfer waiting list doesnt seem that long

The union has negotiated our bonus-targets are the same as for management. Each year those will be adjusted.
Knowing that management will take good care of themselves I think personally it would not be too difficult to get our full perf. bonus each year.
Interesting to note that this year even with a loss we would have been entitled to half our perf. bonus, i.e. 5%. I believe this year our full 10% perf. bonus was matched to only a 4-5 mln. pound profit.

It doesn't matter as our basic salary is determined on years of service and not the type of aircraft you fly.
In reality they earn a little bit more on the boeing because you normally end up on the boeing after a couple of years as FO on the Embraer or Q400. They also tend to get more Sundays/Night hours, etc. So in reality they earn more, but it's insignificant. The captains have a completely different salary scale where quite a significant jump is made once they go on the 737.

PS: Clandestino, you're right, shouldn't feed the troll.

All the numbers are on Untitled Document. Sectorpay (dieta) is the same for FO/SFO/CAPT, not very high. But basic is relatively high which is good given the number of days off we've got.
Any more questions, feel free to PM.
