In interviews, there is the truth, and then there is what is actually said, often these two are not the same.

Could someone please explain to me how the payment structure works?

For example, if I join as a SH FO, say in 6 years I go for command, will I be on the payment schedule as a command year 1, or year 6?

And when downgrading after another 6 years to go for long haul RHS, will I then be on the schedule as a year 12 LH FO, or year 1 (effectively either way a chunky pay cut!)

You slide across at Paypoint 6…every year that passes you go up a paypoint on the anniversary of your date of joining.

makes sense. Thanks. Seems strange to take that cut if switching over to LH. But then the rules

Traditional career path was SH f/o, LH f/o, SH Capt, LH Capt. Each change is a pay rise.

Now there are quite a few taking an early SH command. Not many ever go back to the RHS after a command as it’s a pay cut.

Some stay LH f/o until they can be LH Capt. Takes a while.

As a previous poster stated, you go up a pay point each year. When you change job you slide across to that pay point on the new scale.

Good luck all!

What is the deal if you are at BA Euroflyer? I know you are locked into EF for 5 years, however if you then crossed to mainline would you slide across onto the mainline 5yr pay point?

Hate to echo the last 5 posts above but I would appreciate a DM on the capacity test if anyone wouldn't mind.
