A couple of points to make. I've been at SWA for awhile and make 325,000 a yr and have for the last 5 yrs. You really can't use 85 or even 90 trips for pay because it depends on how much you wish to fly. I limit myself to 149 days a year or less, including all days at work. I know several guys that average over $400,000 a year but they work pretty hard to do that. Second, don't listen to guys on a forum to see if you like the working conditions. If possible ride their jumpseat several times to get a taste of what it's like. Third, are the new hires at Frontier still going to be mad at SWA crews on the van ride to/from airport?

I just fly the jet
