From the Aviation Herald:

Quote:
On Mar 26th 2015 Lufthansa reported the captain had 6000 flight hours of experience, the first officer 630 hours.
Quote:
The first officer started training in 2008, worked as a flight attendant, continued training after undergoing another assessment, passed all tests and started his pilot career as first officer on the A320 in 2013.
I know Europe and others do the airline thing differently than North America, 5 years from the start of your training to an FO of an airliner. He had ~400 hours less in the air than I do in total.
