+22% at 2018 = A320 - 12 year captain at $258 and 12 F.O at $176.
I'm happy for United's pilots. United also had a record net income of $4.5 billion in 2015. Although JB's annual financials haven't been released yet, I doubt JB is anywhere close to United's income level, which ultimately allows them to pay their pilots these outstanding rates.
Sorry to be the realist here.
