Hello fellas

just applied to Naples base ,would love to hear about the roster , salary and also if it is possible to join EZ straight into SFO payscale assuming we meet the factoured hours requirement ...

TIA

Yes you go straight onto SFO if you meet the hours requirement. Basic+guaranteed flight pay for SFO is €72,950. Quite a few four sectors out of Naples because everything’s close, quieter than Milan though.

What are the requirements to join as SFO? I assume they use factorised hours to determine ranks.

thanks for the feedback, it's kinda of confusing , cause i contacted some FOs from NAP on LinkedIn and all of them says that you can't join as an SFO from day one.... guess i ll have the clear with the HR team at the assesment centres ?

Is there a difference in the payscale if you are frozen ATPL or full ?

how about roster, can you go straight to 5 4 5 3 from day one ? can you take leave right away ?

last but no least, what s the minimum timelapse to ask for base change ? ( France in my case )

oonce again, thanks so much for your help Seosan

As italian CLA says, over 3000+ factored hours, you join as FO. To became SFO, you will need 24months as FO in the company. Minimum service in rank

thanks for the heads up

What is the price for the type rating?

22000 pounds as per EZ

no difference at all atpl or not. If you have less than 3000h factored, you join as SO. After 2 years FO, after 2 years more SFO , you will need atpl to be sfo. But if you have less than 3000h that won’t happen before 4 years. Basically you are at the same level of a cadet if you join ezy in Italy with less of that flight time I mentioned
for the first year you have flexible roster.

thanks for your help, i do have 3500 hours factored and fATPL . lets see what the futur holds for me :)

So good, you will join as FO and after 2 years you will be senior. Good Luck mate!

And to have a shot at upgrade does one need to be a SFO?

Hello! Does anybody have any info about the SIM assessment for Type rated First officers?

quiet obvious. Not the pink brigade mate.

Negative, no need to be SFO to upgrade. The rank only relates to pay.
The entry rank depends on the country, every contract is different. With the same hours one can join as SO in a country or SFO in another. And it is possible to upgrade from SO to Cpt, if other criterias are met and if one is willing to move anywhere. Not very likely but not impossible either

my bet. Exactly like the pink brigade then, now.
😂

What, basing ability to upgrade on ability rather than amount of cloth woven epaulettes on one’s shoulder. It’ll never catch on! :}

Would be nice if true. But since it all depends on the subjective assessment of the base captain, better have a good relationship with them or change base.

Anyone here that works for easyjet at AMS? I'm interested in what the schedule looks like and time to upgrade without changing base.

Initially, post Covid nothing was paid during the unemployment period. Pilots went on strike in 2022.

Still much lower paid than the old "legacy" contracts back from 2018 when they were desperately recruiting DEC which sees no pay rises since inflation.
They are struggling hard to find people, most FOs from flight school who are getting transfers internally or logging hours to jump ships aggravated by the fact that on seasonal contracts it is very difficult to build hours.
