Pilot Pay explained. Reserve schedule pilot pay is commonly misunderstood.

[@FlywithMikey96]

Imagine working 3 - 10 days on reserve a month and make over 120k year 2 😂 I love this crazy industry

[@Joeymiuccio]

The best haha

[@Sabretoothedrooster]

And you still don’t pay full price for chipotle meat. The best.

@@Sabretoothedrooster yeah man! Per diem would give you about 40-50 bucks for the day that you’re gone! That’s a nice chipotle meal 💪🏾

Flight attendant here-- Crew members usually work more than the average person between getting preflight, boarding and deplaning. Some are working 14 hr days and only being paid for about half of that if not less

[@johannagallagher5855]

Love this . Have a great weekend joey .

[@danityvanityinsanity]

Wow! That is really interesting! I’m glad you get a decent amount of time off to unwind, have fun, and enjoy life! Being an airline pilot seems like a high stress position but fun too!😃👍✨💖✨

[@Medomsley]

Long time since you had the moustache Joey, it looked great so how about growing it back again? You have a head start already!

[@adelguy67]

Honestly it's the perfect job especially when you love what you do! In terms of the average salary of pilots in the USA being $134,630 per year and INR 1,182,637 per year, If you flew international routes you would make so much more money

[@FlywithMikey96]

Work a little extra per month you can make 250k!

[@adelguy67]

@@FlywithMikey96 I definitely chose the wrong career 🤦‍♂

[@FlywithMikey96]

@@adelguy67 I’m not exclusively going for becoming a pilot for the money but it is a huge factor of me choosing this endeavor 😅

[@CoolAce1-dv1pn]

Where do u get those numbers from? I see average of $87,000/yr and I'm not even sure that's for new hires, or $42 per hour. Still good in my book. Maybe you mean experienced pilots?

[@FlywithMikey96]

@@CoolAce1-dv1pn yeah it’s typically experienced pilots. But there’s a bunch of 25-30 year olds at legacy airlines making 250k a year working less than half the month :)

Thank you for sharing.😊

Absolutely 🤙🏽

[@ashcorvus7004]

Going to school next year to start my path to become a pilot, Im stoked!

[@emaneasler]

Thank you for the info. Just wondering as an aspiring pilot what do you think of Embry-Riddle???

[@Joeymiuccio]

I’ve heard good things but I’ll don’t know too much about it tbh

[@mariofan402]

Embry-Riddle is a little expensive in my opinion. Usually after everything you'll spend about $200k+. There are some cheaper flight schools out there

[@emaneasler]

@@mariofan402 I understand that. That is why I am taking gen ed classes at my local community college and working on my ppl at the local flight school. Thanks for the info tho.

[@AntiNormie812]

Love the vids Joey. Can you please tell us what path you recommend for new pilots who need to build hours but just aren't cut out for the CFI route?

[@Joeymiuccio]

I went the CFI route so that’s really all I can speak on from experience. But there’s many other jobs out there to build time

[@AntiNormie812]

Did you enjoy being a CFI or was it an exhausting grind? How long did it take you to get the additional ~1200 hrs?@@Joeymiuccio

[@swaviator9623]

As an ATP Flight School student who starts in April, I’ll be looking for the answer here as well

[@renatamadicka333]

Wow Joey good job decision.

[@Joeymiuccio]

Thanks 🙏🏽

[@paullemon5154]

Give that hot pilot all the time off he wants....that is one fine looking guy!!

[@Joeymiuccio]

Haha thanks 🙏🏽

[@AHC_]

So you get 75 hrs no matter what? Then if you pick up on your off day, you get more than 75 hrs? So if you picked up an extra two four hour flights you’d make 83hrs of pay? And would those extra 8 hrs be 125% pay?

[@mariofan402]

No. Normally as reserve you don't pick up flights to make extra money. You have to actually fly 75 hours and then fly however many more hours after the initial 75 to get 125 percent

[@AHC_]

@@mariofan402 Thank you.

[@Joeymiuccio]

Yes exactly. If I fly zero hours and then pick up a trip on my day off it goes on top of the 75 hours.

[@Joeymiuccio]

@@mariofan402hey I appreciate u helping out here but you’re incorrect here.

What happens if you crash the plane into the ground?

It’s not good haha

[@anime_addicted9]

But this way it’ll take a lot longer to become a pot surely because you’re not getting flight hours or is it pure seniority ?

[@mariofan402]

Senority doesn't matter how.many hours you fly. It's just the amount of time you've been with the company

[@anime_addicted9]

@@mariofan402 but how long you’ve been with company is seniority tho isn’t it ?

No. There are no exceptions to the beard rule, even if it's against your religion they expect you to be clean shaven

Your airline is the reason I missed my grandmas funeral last year just fyi. No hate on you but you had a choice not to pick frontier.

[@jersey282]

And you had a choice to not buy a ticket with them. No hate on you, but you failed your grandma.

[@Thebestbassclarinet]

@@jersey282 I didn’t pick the airline did u read my user name I’m in High school so I didn’t really have a choice and my family doesn’t have much money and woe still would’ve missed it if we drove. But I do understand it’s not his fault I was feeling sad knowing this would be my first Christmas without her and I was just really sad and for some reason I took it out on this guy. Now that I’ve calmed down about the whole thing I realize it was mean of me to take out my frustration on him.
