Ryanair - Income
Hey, having just passed Ryanair selection I'm pretty interested to know how much I can expect to earn in my first and second years. I have a pretty good idea and I know the payscales but if someone is willing to post the amount paid into their accounts (or companies accounts) for the first year (monthly breakdown if possible) I would really appreciate it.
Eg: in the first 3 months (line training) I got paid xxx month 1, xxx month 2 etc. For the next 5 months i got paid xxx per month until I got to the 500 hour mark, then I earned xxx for this month and xxx for that month totalling xxx for the year. If anyone is willing to post this or something similar it would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah, dont buy new ones, used are awesome these days!
2004 730d 75k miles 35mpg - £14k, was £55k new... its a no brainer.
On topic, you will need to check out the other threads with the hourly pay scales, ie starting on e45/hr...
Then I think the average is 60hrs/month ? at least thats the figure that is being thrown around on here.
Watch out, you've used 'Ryanair' in the thread title, so any minute now the sh*%$ slingers and RYN bashers will be arriving!

Cheers V1 and beast.
Thats a significant hrs difference though. Do you think it might often be different between different bases?
Or just the standard thought of cheaper FOs getting more?
Where are you both based?

RYR pay, Brookfield
Im an F/O with >500 hours (BRK) (Northern Europe Base)
Think it's best to average it out over the year, and divide by 12, as the hours can vary quite a bit, did 92 in Nov and 46 in Feb, looks like I'll end up at about 780 over the year. The skippers all seem to be nearer the 900 hour mark.
Been with RYR for about 2 years now, still enjoy going to work.
good luck

Iv learnt the errors of my ways
Still go to work with a smile,love the planes and interesting routes but bitterly pissed off with sorting out my own affairs its a real pain in the
My bank gives me a statement every month when monies hit the account and to be honest i cant really trust a company with a trading address in Gibraltar ,i found that interesting.
Also accountants on the make i dont like - so i do my own.
Other than the self employed stuff/brookfield everything is ok

Kudos for your honesty. Your previous posts were infuriating, newbies take note, don't argue with fellows who've been at it a while. I understand your motives in doing what you have to but don't blow sun shine while your being humped.

Has anyone else been given another month off? I just had Feb off as my Brookfield month off (fine- had a great time skiing), but now they have changed my roster so that I'm not working in April. Lucky I had a good 90ish hours this month, as I just got a floating contract.
It is clear they have far too many FOs at the moment, and not quite enough Captains. There just are not enough hours to go round. Why the hell are they still recruiting? Unless its because they are making a quick buck on the type ratings. At the end of the day it doesn't matter to them if they have too many Brookfield pilots. It doesn't cost them any more in wages.

Im very interested in getting a floating contract because im away from home anyway so it makes no real difference where im put.
Did you attain the floating contract easily?How long were you waiting?Do you have to meet a certain criteria,ie >500hrs?
