Almost exactly 100k in total compensation with about $11,000 in deductions for Health ins, Ltd, vision, hsa, union dues, etc.
I should have mentioned that I did not fly over my vacations nor did I fly any incentive trips or junior assignments. Basically did the bare minimum

The villagers with pitchforks in the Frontier forums would have been on your doorstep if you hadn't clarified...

It is a **** measuring context. AA narrowbody FO guy says he made 204k. And then writes he flew 18 days a month (so 12 off) and averaged 90 hrs. Sorry, but how is that even remotely reflective of the average line holder? And more importantly, how does that help any current 40 yr old guy on the outside looking in? News flash, some pilots over work themselves and sellout vacation/personal time to pad their pockets more.

Someone decided to start this thread on Christmas Day, because when you wake up on the 25th of December, the first thought is “I wonder what all pilots made this year.”

You can read between the lines, right?? So can I.
Those of us who use this thread also have a reasonable amount of understanding of what we’re reading.

Also, relax and let the rest of us enjoy it/use it.

I didn’t think that this had anything to do with “Average Line Holders.” It’s a swath of the industry and reflects everyone from Line Holders to Reserves, from FO’s to Capt’, Hustlers to Slackers, etc. Take from it what you will, but it shows you what’s possible for each/every walk of life.

Thank goodness some of these places allow the Schedule Flexibility that enables those that prioritize QOL to do so, while others can earn some extra coin if they desire.
