Default Wizz Air:

Now here's an opportunity to live in EU, with the aircraft on order upgrade
should be fairly swift. Any idea on pay scale?

Max gross pay for Captain tops out at €52,000 per annum, im not sure if there is a yearly loyalty bonus like other European LCCs. Word is that this is to discourage expats and keep locals in the cockpit, because those from other EU countries would expect to make more as an A320 Captain. FO starts out at €15,000 for first year after deductions.

Also, the job requires EU or Ukrainian right to live and work and JAA licenses. You have to pay for your own type rating if not already typed. You can commute "for a fee"... Hahaha

Honestly, Wizzair is where a lot of 250hour European guys go to get time on an Airbus 320 so that they can move on elsewhere.
