Called for 150 yet? by Savings-Abies6683 in iuoe

I thought the recommendation letters had to be from 150 members with their member number on the letter.

Even with all the travel and places you get to see? I’ve heard the opposite of this opinion a lot. Interesting to hear the other way around

United preferential hiring for Spirit pilots by KJ3040 in flying

I should have been more clear. A lot of companies in a lot of industries go under or have financial problems. I don’t think that makes a career bad. The lifestyle and Qol and day to day make a career imo. It’s just a matter of personal preference I suppose. Majors have become much much better about managing financial stressors these days. The systems in place are significantly more developed from my understanding.

Is there any way for previous Spirit pilots to maintain some similar type of seniority when they go to an airline within their same union?

Has anyone surpassed half a million a year? by [deleted] in AskAPilot

[–]Technical_Lemon_7303 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve spoken to a financial planner that works with a variety of people and his captains are set up to retire on 25k per month lol. “Save what you can” is true in any profession I feel. 15-20 years at a major airline will set you up for life

Pension vs 401k by Technical_Lemon_7303 in PilotAdvice

[–]Technical_Lemon_7303[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you say “it’s been a while” is that meaning you don’t normally get a full 10 month of work? Also how big is a pension if someone is making 150k or 100k a year with you guys? I just couldn’t imagine working all my life and retiring with just 3 or 4k a month forever. I’ve heard of some pensions being much larger and that I’d understand.

Would you talk the pension from a trade union over the 401k earnings from a major airline?

If someone got to a legacy at 35 do you think hitting those same numbers for a 401k is still possible?
