Why Are Flight Attendants Paid So Much Less Than Pilots?

There’s more to a flight attendant’s job than meets the eye. The same goes about the hours they spend on the job but are not paid for.

Fancy aircraft, fancy salary?

From less than $5,000 to as high as $100,000, the salary of an ATC depends on factors like geographical region and expertise.

The executive says his pay was less than than CEOs at the carriers competitors, but consistent.

Deadhead pilots travel as passengers in economy class and in exceptional circumstances, are expected to perform their duties.

The executive has had a rather troubling four-year tenure.

The higher than average salary reflects the training required and responsibility of the job.

Not all pilots will earn this much, but some can reach this level after over 20 years in the industry.
