Ryan Air pay/benefits
All of these new startups like to brag at how they are copying Ryan Air. Labor should show them the Ryan Air pay/benefits. These new airlines in the U.S. are even worse than Ryan Air.
What’s on offer – 5 reasons to become a Ryanair Pilot
1. Outstanding Earnings Potential
Ryanair Pilots are recognised as the best paid short haul pilots in Europe. Senior pilots in Ryanair have excellent remuneration packages as follows:
Captains - Up to £100,000 ($197,500)
First Officers - Up to £70,000 ($138,250)
At Ryanair there are no seniority lists and there are no complicated salary scales, you can expect to reach these amounts in 3 – 5 years, with more if you take on a line training role.
2. Fixed Roster Pattern
Ryanair Pilots enjoy a stable 5 on, 4 off roster pattern comprising a week of early shifts followed by a week of late shifts. This offers our Pilots fixed days off and an ability to plan their time off which is unique in aviation. Rosters are published 4 weeks in advance.
3. Home every night
At Ryanair there are no planned overnights. If you are based at Rome-Ciampino you will start and end your day at Rome-Ciampino, barring of course technical problems or exceptional circumstances. Combined with our stable roster pattern this delivers a unique quality of life for Ryanair pilots.
4. Unrivalled Career Progression
With our aircraft deliveries and expansion plans first officers can expect to enter the command evaluation process within three years. We are also currently recruiting for Direct Entry Fast Track Command positions; first officers with more than 3,000 total hours and 500 hours on type can apply for a fast track command position, you can enter the command evaluation process after 6 months flying as a Ryanair First Officer. We also have Line Training / TRE / TRI positions available.
5. Share Options Scheme
We believe that our pilots should share in the success of the company and that’s why we have operated a share options scheme which has so far delivered individual gains of over €250,000 to Ryanair pilots since we floated on the Stock Exchange in 1997.
