This thread really brings out some reflection and appreciation in me. FINALLY we’re making what we deserve to and should be making (for the most part as our Canadian brethren are still grossly under compensated).
Considering the tremendous responsibility we bear each time we “strap in” in both monetary and human life terms, we by no means are over-compensated and what happened to our profession in the 2000s was absolutely criminal.
We are finally back to making what we deserve as highly skilled and experienced professionals and it’s great to read that that permeates to all levels of our industry from the regionals (thank goodness in particular) to the legacies, ULCC, to cargo.
That said, considering what’s going on with inflation, etc. it’s absolutely IMPERATIVE that we fight for and secure proportionately large gains in this round of pattern bargaining. We owe it to ourselves and those aviators that are just beginning their careers. Let us never relive the Lost Decade ever again.

Here’s the opposite end of the UPS spectrum. I used every available tool to work as little as possible at the expense of earning potential. Several conflicts throughout the year resulted in extra days off along with 2 weeks of vacation and 1 sick call. I used a contract provision to drop trips for no pay several times. Always made sure to maintain the minimum credit required to maintain vacation/sick/retirement accruals. No JA/OT pickups in 2021.
UPS 3/4 year FO
$222,400 gross

A Plan- $$??
$8400 per diem
2021 days worked averaged just under 10 per month

Take UAL C2000 and DAL2001 and adjust for inflation from those years to current.
Pretty sure current numbers are coming in low.

This is waaay to accurate. Industry standard pay rates in 2021 lags industry standard 2001 by a significant margin. We can debate the relative retirement benefits then vs now, but pay is clearly lagging.

Yeah, heard that current wages is what they mainline pilots were making back then. Crazy when adjusted for inflation.
