End of 2019 regional survey
Really eye opening seeing what our major counterparts made on their thread, so here we go. (Major link: https://www.airlinepilotforums.com/major/126228-end-2019-salary-survey.html )
Threads like this are useful for those nearing ATP mins, low hour window shoppers, and those that are playing the game now. We also see outliers, regular line swine, and those who grow beards.
So same as the years prior, post your airline, years for pay, take home salary, airframe, hours flown, days worked, commuter status, bonus and any other compensation.
9E FO

Live in base, half year of reserve
$51,000 guarantee

$4759 per diem
$1330 company 401K
Some other fluff pay like LMS / quarterly
$69,500 total
Days worked: 140
Block hours: 500

Similar here:
Year 1/2 FO at 9E:
Lived in base for half of this year.
On RSV in base now (by choice), giving up my line for better QOL at home.
Blocked 370 hours.
Gross pay $75.5k.
Picked up lots of extra flying on days off in base.
Best month was ~ 130 credit.
Was commuting to NYC for first half of 2019, and was dropping a lot of RSV days, so had many < 70 credit hour months as well during that time.

Year 2/3 ZW FO/CA
Upgraded roughly halfway through the year.
Sim and CPT instructor.
Averaged 6-7 days off a month.
Average credit of 115-125 or so.
Regular pay 52,000
Overage 27,000
Instructor override 2,000
Sick/vacation pay 2,300
Soft pay (med exam, IBT completion etc) 350
Per diem 3,600
Company 401k (I max) 5,800
Grossed roughly 91,000 total. I’d guess I’d have probably made 125 or so if I had been a captain all year. Worked way too much but overall satisfied.

Year 1/2 PDT FO
$39,XXX guarantee
$20,XXX premium
$6,XXX per diem
$10,XXX bonus/vacation/401k match
$75k total for 240 days worked
This reflects significant triple premium pay which was greatly reduced the second half of the year. I’ll figure next year will be less.
