Chinese airlines offer lucrative pay to attract expat pilots
The growing demand for air travel in China and the mushrooming of new air carriers is creating opportunities for expat pilots.
China is reportedly facing highly surging travel demands. To meet the same Chinese airlines will have to hire almost 100 pilots a week for the next 20 years. The growing demand for experienced pilots is a challenge to be met alone at home, as airline majors are now looking to hire foreign pilots. In this attempt air carriers in China are offering highly lucrative pay packages to attract expat pilots.
Reportedly, pilots have been offered over $300,000 a year. Air traffic over China is set to almost quadruple in the next two decades, making it the world’s busiest market, according to Airbus Group SE. Startup carriers barely known abroad are paying about 50 per cent more than what some senior captains earn at Delta Air Lines, and they are also apparently, giving recruiters from the US to New Zealand, a free rein to fill their captains’ chairs.
