Can someone who is familiar describe how a pilot is paid in training (guarantee, 60 hours, etc.) and is per diem payed as well? Thank you in advance!
I went thru the training recently. We got paid a 72 hour guarantee and daily per diem of (1.85 x 24) for every day of month including days off. I'm not sure what your pay rate will be. Just a guess but if your last UAL rate was under $115 an hour, I assume you will get the 5th year JCBA rate (refer to LOA25) of $115. If you were making more than that at United, I think you will still get that higher rate until SLI (under terms of T&PA). Also I think the per diem rate increases at DOS to $2.15 an hour
