Italy, especially mxp, is not unlikely as a new entrant, and yes, portugal and spain also a possibility

Following on, I have been given a Spanish seasonal base with line training to be conducted somewhere else beforehand.

And finally, yes: MXP can happen for new entrants. One of us got it.

The rest of my cohort I know of got LIS (3), FAO (2), AGP (1), ALC (5) and PMI (1) Few lucky gits managed AMS (1), MXP (1) or VCE (1).

I hope this info might help

Which preference did you indicate? Are you permanently employed?

Good morning Duca,

I asked for Italian bases. Unfortunately they were already filled up so I got ALC instead.

The deal is fine and clear. easyJet is doing it the proper way: no self employed, no shortcuts, no shady conditions etc; and of course it includes all social contributions, benefits etc. Anyway, it’s a 75% contract (9 months on, 3 off) but with a renumeration package of about 92%, including contributions (effectively a salary) during time off.

Yes, it is a permanent contract. Meaning I will return to work after the 3 months off. But my plan is to bid for a new base after line check. I personally don’t mind the 75% contract - I’m quite happy with that but I am not the biggest fan of ALC. In fact I would have been much happier with AGP.

All right man thanks. Do you know if they use some sort of criteria to assign bases?

Hi,
You will not receive a permanent contract but a 'fijo-discotinuo" contract. Basically, for the 3 months, you will be unemployed but you can ask for unemployment benefits if eligible by the Spanish State (SEPE). Check following for the meaning:

You will not receive 92% of your salary but 6k before you will be made unemployed, which they call it 'unemployment support allowance'.

Anyone know the prospects of getting BER base as a RHS new join? Also what the waiting list might be for transfer?

SFO (2501+ factored hours): £70,957 + sector pay (£22 per sector). No loyalty pay for RHS.
FO: (1251+ factored hours): £57,802 + sector (same as SFO).

ES (not sure if changed since 2021)
8 months on, 4 months off
CP: 75,860 eur + sector + holiday pay + benefits + loyalty pay. Roughly 100k first year all in.
SFO: 40,951 + everything as above. Roughly 55k all in.
FO: 30,210 + above. Roughly 40k all in

The atmosphere is largely fine, vast majority of crew are a pleasure to fly with. We have lost a fair few bodies recently to legacy airlines and the sand pit, as a result everyone is feeling the strain of summer and working high hours, combined with the constant disruption it can be quite fatiguing. If you take a full time base the autumn and winter is generally very pleasant with enough hours to keep you busy but not so much so that you can't recover from the summer onslaught. Training is first class.

Do you perhaps have an idea of the salary of a new cadet Second Officer with easyJet U.K.?

£48,900. No sector pay. Union negotiations ongoing.

Thanks for responding, couldn’t find it anywhere. How long have negotiations been going on for?

Is the FO salary still below the market in the UK? Or have they increased the package to compete with Jet 2?

Currently it’s still well below jet2. Pay talks are in process at the moment, but large numbers of FO’s leaving for BA, particularly from LGW and LTN. Northern bases are seeing a number of FO’s leave for J2. Some also going to EK.
