Eurowings Europe to get a collective labour agreement
I've been prying this forum for about a year now and just saw that Eurowings Europe is finally getting a Collective Labour Agreement. I'd post a link to austrianaviation but apparently thats not possible in your first 10 posts so you gotta check it out yourselves - sorry!
Now - does anyone have any definite numbers on what's changing for new FOs?
Are they just raising the compensation to what Eurowings Germany is paying or even more?
Cheers!

It is gross. If you fly above the limit, expect to increase your salary by a few hundreds.
Btw, I would not call the '14 salary rule' weird, as these are taxed at a very low rate. And yes, you get 14 salaries.

Gotcha! Thanks!
It's just weird in a sense that I've never really gotten around how it works until a few days ago. Surely no ones complaining about a 13th and 14th salary almost tax free!
Just for clarification - the 4.000€ include 75 duty hours and would be paid 14x a year which puts the starting salary somewhere in the 54-56k € range.
That'd now be even better than the 'new' german contracts that would include 130 duty hours a month and would average out around 52k€ pA.

55k gross per year in Germany is less than 35000 net, if the tax calculator is right. Underwhelming to say the least, but still an improvement over the old contract, I guess.

The 75 hours are blockhours, not duty hours. However, the new EW-EU salary comes very close to the EW GmBH one at first look but keep in mind that the overall benefits (pension, LoL) are still better on the German contract.
I wouldn't call 55k plus additional allowances bad for a starter Dirk but it appears we both have a different sight on this matter.

Less than 3000 net a month to fly 900 hours per year is bad from any angle I can think of, but that's probably just me. We have cabin crew here making more, and flying much less.

Well, this is the industry standard now. Wages for 320 and 737 start for beginners at around 45-60k, ranging up to 170k for experienced Captains. If you managed to get to an employer which offers more than that, that's totally fine for me. Besides the big majors in Europe and maybe EZY at some bases there aren't many carriers left who offer more.
