SWA guys - I've been told your average pay is usually 6.5-8.5 trips per day (so let's say 7.5 trips per day). That probably equates to about 7 hours per day or so when you convert your trips to hours. Is this accurate? Whenever I've actually seen someone's trip/pairing printout it usually looks something like this - they're working 13 days or so and making about 1176 trips per year or 1000 "hours" per year. That sounds reasonable.
For some reason we must have the highest paid SWA guys on this bulletin board (and I've never seen an actual trip of theirs either) because they somehow seem to make around 1200 "hours" per year working about 10 days a month. Which is the more accurate?
13 days a month for 1176 trips at about $101 for 5th year FO rate equals about $120K/yr which sounds reasonable and matches up to what most guys say, other than the ones on this board of course.
