Salaries for Singapore Airlines Pilots

When you first begin flying for an airline as a new first officer, your salary may not be amazing. However, as you become more experienced — and become a captain — your salary will often become quite big.

One example is Singapore Air captains flying twin-aisle Boeing 777 or Airbus A330’s: They begin at S$9,870 (USD $6,870) per month. Pilots can often also earn more: a productivity allowance of as much as S$3,800 is available for pilots flying 70 hours a month.

In the U.S., senior (experienced) captains, who fly the larger planes at major airlines, typically make more than USD $15,500 per month or $186,000 per year, according to FltOps.com.

Over 466,650 new airline pilots are expected to be hired worldwide between now and 2029.  Will you be one of them? There has never been a better time to train to be an airline pilot.

Contact Phoenix East Aviation at www.pea.com for information on how you can start training to be a career pilot.
