1st year would be around $107,000 with per diem just looking at my averages. But you have the training pay before that. So assuming 2 months in training and 10 months on the line 97,000 plus a bit for per diem during training. Year two $113,000 and year 3 in jumps to $129,000. This assumes roughly 9k in per diem per year which is what I’m tracking towards. All that is pre tax. Most often overnights are DFW SEA BWI in that order from what I can see. There is also two Japanese bases that people will spend a week at a time at, one is okay the other not so much. Other than that you may spend extra days at home on duty especially at the end of a stretch of duty days. If you live in DFW or SEA you can end up with quite a few days at home on call.

Pay is essentially the same between the fleets. 777 guys get used (work days not necessarily hours) more. 767 has better schedules. 777 deadheads more chasing aircraft if that’s your thing. Bidding doesn’t really mean all that much here as some days can be moved around somewhat easily (D.J. Is awesome). Oh and outside of Christmas you can have pretty much any week of vacation you like as most guys cash out their vacation here. So if you have children that’s really nice.
