NEW DELHI: Budget carrier SpiceJet BSE 1.09 % has hiked the salary packages of its Bombardier Q-400 fleet commanders by 20-25 per cent, bringing them on par with Boeing pilots, sources said.
The move is also aimed at arresting the increased migration of such pilots to the cash-rich gulf airlines, who offer attractive pay packages, they said.
The Gurgaon-based carrier currently has a fleet of 34 planes - 19 Boeing 737s and 15 Bombardier Q-400s operating over 235 daily domestic and international flights.
