About 1ct/mile&point is what I used when I was 91k, and raking those in. $20K would be my guestimate. But only if you would have spend that much on travel anyway.....

From: B737 FO
Widget 73 CA
9-10 months of lines, 2-3 months RSV
Flight pay: 375k
PS: 37k
Per diem/other: 6k
401k+excess: 46k+31k
Total: 495k
I don't track days worked per month but maybe avg 13-14 in non-vac months. Numbers are rough w/o final check.
A handful of premium trips, hawk the swap board for better trips but not really a 'hustler'.
For someone asking for a 'get PBS award and fly your line' I'm decently close to that and wouldn't consider myself an outlier but middle of curve pay-wise for my category.

These threads are heavily biased towards people who are doing better than average. For every 1 pilot that is willing to work their schedule/system in order to earn more/work less, there are 6-9 pilots who are content with just flying their awarded schedule, making closer to 1000 x rate. Of course for those pilots there is nothing in particular to boast about, so you see a lot less posts around the true average.
I’ll chime in as a “Joe average”
DL 737A, year 2/3
average 17.5 days off per month (a day on reserve is a day at work)
Only one 2 day GS (200% premium trip).
flight pay: 345k approx (one check to go)
PS: 16.5k
401k: 58.5k
gross pay ~ $420k
