How the pay is built

Base salary ~EUR 900-1,300 gross in CEE bases and EUR 1,200-1,600 in western ones, plus per-flight pay and commission; UK target packages run ~GBP 23,000 (junior) to GBP 34,000 (senior) assuming 18-28 flights/month.

Income is taxed at this base, so compare the figure above against tax-free Gulf packages carefully: a smaller tax-free salary can be worth more in real terms. You fund your own housing, so local rent is the number that decides what this salary is really worth.

Accommodation

No housing support at any base; crew pick bases partly for living costs, and CEE bases pair lower pay with much cheaper rents than western Europe.
