United Airlines CEO Jeff Smisek saw his total compensation fall 15 percent to $8.1 million last year, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission late Friday.

The filing comes a day after the airline's parent, United Continental Holdings, reported a steep fourth-quarter loss it blamed on bad weather.

Smiisek took home a salary of $975,000, the same as the year before. The value of his stock awards increased to $5.7 million from $3.1 million in 2012. But his performance-based bonus slid to $1.2 million from $3.5 million the year before.

The value of his perks also fell, to $168,540 from $302,377 in 2012. Those perks included insurance premiums paid by the company, an executive physical, contributions to his 401(k) plan, financial planning and tax services, a car allowance, airport parking, free flights and on-board meals.
