That's counting gross wages, per diem, and 401(k) benefits. Should be close to $60k first year.

The union wants it rolled into pay rates while the company wants it as a bonus still. There isn't a doubt that it will continue, just HOW it will continue.

[QUOTE=Name User;2129118]Per diem is a great benefit if not spent, I spend around $5/day on average...but this guy was including his company 401k contributions in his 'income' figure, did you even read what my post was about?[/QU
Yes, of course I read it. It seemed you were taking a dim view of per diem as income as well. We agree that it's circumstantial, as long as you don't become the Wolf of Wall Street on overnights. I also agree that company 401k additions shouldn't be counted. That is income for later on...takes time to become vested, etc...

The bigger point is the chart simply shows the pay floor at each regional. You have the potential to earn much more at each and every one of them. It doesn't reflect ceilings.

Closer it $155k if you keep credit high each month and include per diem.

Also, it's best you delve deeper than wages. Look at business models, who their customers are, current business practices, work rules, union vs. non-Union, bio's of leadership, history of pay negotiations, unity of pilot group, trip mix, schedules, benefits, 401k's, success of training departments, etc.
