I know, It’s complicated. I have credit if I need it. Just trying to decide what’s best. Thank you.

Nope, just the one from your mom.

Are you old enough to be an airline pilot?

Is anyone too old for a mom joke?

Dude, 110k is easy at SWA if you need to do it. First couple months in training will hold you back a bit but110k is only about 122 TFP a month. That gets you to 110 and that’s not counting 15% NEC.

Totally doable…like that other guy’s mom :)

Delta.
Alaska.
Southwest.

Thank you

Easily the dumbest question on this board. You are going to say no $300K+ down the road because you can't afford to live off $70K for a year? If you spend $110K/yr, but can't borrow $40K, I am not sure if your decision making capabilities qualify you for an ATP. No mom jokes required.

real quick escalation from asking a weird/stupidish question to “I banged your mom”. Love it. Don’t close this bad boy mods!

As others have pointed out, earning that amount at SWA is possible in the first year. It will require some hustle and patience but if you put your mind to it and keep the goal in focus, it is doable (I have quite a few friends as well as myself who have done it). You will simply need to prioritize your goals, make a plan and work the plan. Good luck in your endeavors.

You can earn more than $100K at Delta in your first year but that will depend on the ability to pick up additional flying.
