Glad I found this thread because I was curious myself. I’m just wondering what the average take home is monthly after tax year one?Obviously this will vary a bit but looking for a general ballpark for planning purposes.

$2800ish per paycheck year one. During training they will be even less. One paycheck of mine during training was a whopping $700.

Year two pay raise is different at AA than anywhere else. You won't get your raise on your hire date anniversary. It'll be on the anniversary of whenever you completed IOE. Which is usually 2.5 to 3 months after hire date.

Thanks, saw someone a few posts up saying it was a 57k paycut and that made me nervous. Won’t even be close to that much of a pay cut for me luckily.

What? Training pay is higher than the SC reserve guarantee. I didn't see the amount near the training pay until I got a line ~6 month in.

Ah yeah I remeber that. Mine was in the $300 range, but I suppose it all evens out eventually. Weird system

I like the guys that were screaming recession about four months ago. Dow has gone up ~2,000 points. I wonder if they got out?

Four months ago?? They were screaming recession this time last year. My retirement and brokerage account has spoken otherwise though, thankfully.

$100k pay cut. All depends on how much you were making. Caught up by year three and then some.
