Hoping to be on the top end of this thread someday.
WGN MD11 FO
Year 2 pay earlier in the year, most of the year at 3 year pay.
Gross numbers:
Pay: $84,800
Bonuses: $25,900 (had 3 bonuses this year, in 2020 I will probably only get one for $4,300 or so.)
Per Diem: $8,600 (normally this is around $11,000, but we had a summer slowdown and I didn't fly much.) Yes, I know it isn't taxable income but some people like to know.
401k company contrib: $2100 (I max it out)
Total Taxable: $112,700
Some FOs that are OT *****s hit 125-130 taxable, that's not me.
The brightest spot was I didn't work much. We get paid by the day and are home based, no business class though. Worked around 150 days on the road (all overnights), paid for about 215. Flew around 210 hours including IRO and ACM time. We can't cash out our vacation or carry over much so I used most of that also.
Mainline schedule, weak pay though.
Hoping 2020 is more fruitful. Cheers.
