How Airline Pilots Can Make 150% Pay On Days Off

- Cockpit scenes filmed with approval, in partnership with Envoy Air Inc, under Part 91... OT, or "Open Time" flying, is a great way to increase your earnings and flight time per month. Did you know that most airlines are contractually required to offer a certain amount of OT per month? You'll find a wide range of OT pay scales ranging from 115%-300% depending on the airline you work for. Picking up an OT trip takes away guaranteed off time, but can be a great opportunity if it fits into your schedule and goals for the month.

Before I became an airline pilot, I'd always heard about how pilots have the opportunity to make a good bit of extra money by "picking up" extra trips on the side. While every airline has a different process and set of policies, I hope this gives you a good overview of what you can expect. Is there something else you want to learn about becoming an airline pilot? Leave me a comment below with video ideas!
Swayne Martin do i need a 4 year degree to be an airline pilot and would a 2 year flight college be enough?
I’ve always wanted to be a pilot since I was 5 years old. You have given me the spark again to go out and try to make my dream possible! Please keep making the videos you have really inspired me and others to go out and try.
Swayne Martin You should approach head office about doing promotional videos or tv ads for Envoy. They must be proud to have you onboard cuz we are! 😆😊☺
@@mattapplin5677 In order to be competitive at the largest carriers you will need a 4 year degree. Very few get hired without it. At the smaller carriers it may not be as critical.
Swayne could you please do a video on your envoy configured iPad... Great videos by the way
These videos are a great marketing employment tools for Envoy, and this kid is a phenomenal brand ambassador👍🏾
Kerron Safe agreed I never heard of Envoy until now.
raz3000 regional carrier for AA
That is exactly the point.
Every video has a message that it’s produced in partnership with the airline.
Swayne has also said that he’s doing these videos to help people understand the job to assist with the Pilot shortage that was around before COVID (and will come back after COVID).

Yea man, the kid has talent when it comes to being great at his job and making videos talking about it.
Looks very professional
Shout out to Traverse City!! If you're in need of a home-cooked meal while on the road up north, you and your crew are always welcome.
I live in Suttons Bay 💪
Awesome comment!
Your videos were so good before you started with Envoy but they have gotten even better. Fantastic job Swayne. I'm really enjoying them.
Who else can’t wait for another Swayne upload?
Edit: This was a very informative and well edited video. Keep it up Swayne!
I wish he uploaded on a way more frequent basis!!!!!
I always get excited when I see a new video!
Ayyyyyy, new video, been waiting for quite some time now
Goal is about 1 per month
Being a pilot is rough but props to this guy. He's in it to grind👐
As a frequent business flyer of envoy and an aviation fanatic, your channel gives me the behind the scenes view of how it all works. Keep up the great work!
Man watching this video makes me even want to keep going with my private pilots license and do whatever I can do get my other ratings. Unfortunately I’m just a student pilot and it’s been hard trying to get money to finish so I am so happy you made it to the regionals
Dont give up man..
I love your videos, and everyday it's joyful thanks to the nice background musics!
love your videos!
Really great to see how it works behind the scenes! Keep it up mate!
Still inspiring me to follow my dream I can't wait to make it to Bahamas air then its off to Southwest. Every video you make inspires me more and more. :)
Can you do a video about commuting, and what pilots do when they have to commute somewhere and stay the night before? Im most likely going to have to commute to my airline job, and want to know what its like, and what the best way to go about commuting is? Thanks!
Agreed. I was just going to ask about who foots the bill for hotels and such
erik short Yep I’ll do that! Good idea
Dave Gray short answer: you do. Most airlines’ philosophy is you don’t have to live in base but that’s your problem
Eric have some pride friend.
@@brettpatetto6847 what do you mean? where did i not have "pride"?
Awesomeness once again! Very well explained. My realized aviation dreams involved something different than flying airplanes even though originally I did want to be an airline pilot and did some flight training initially. It’s great getting to see the job thru your perspective. Excellent videography too btw.
Good morning Swayne. Glad you are still being able to produce these videos with Envoy. I've loved every one you've made since before your commercial experience in Hawaii. Thanks for sharing.
You're living the dream, Swayne... living the dream! Love your videos man!
Wow! Yet again another extremely informative and entertaining video! Swayne, you never fail to clearly convey the message in an extremely detailed manner. As an aspiring pilot, I really do look up to you and I’m always super excited to see new uploads! Astonishing work, buddy! Blue skies! 👨🏻✈️🙌🏻
Thank you Swayne Martin! I have found your journey inspiring and very motivational. Several months ago I made the choice to career change at 47. You have been one of the people I've watched for reassurance in my decision. I'm currently preparing to solo for my PPC. I couldn't be happier to be flying again after a 30 year break.
The Envoy program is on the top of my list at the end of my training journey. The program and company look top notch! Im thrilled your flying for them! Keep up the VLog!
Omg loved the video I can’t wait till the next one. You should do an extensive cockpit tour that would be awesome!!!👨✈️
OMG. Your videos are off the chart for me. You have the best views from the flight deck. Thank you for sharing them. I don't think you realize just how amazing you are. Very professional from start to finish. Intelligence and a cool name too! Bravo young man. I know your parents must be extremely proud of you! Continued success.
Swayne, you're a very impressive young man! Your drive and passion is very evident in your videos. I do hope Envoy realizes what a true "workhorse" they have hired! I'm 41 years old chasing the commercial pilot dream. I'm scheduled for my ASEL check ride on the 9th of Feb, and then pressing on through instrument and up! Thanks for the inspiration. I've been watching since you were flying with Caravans.
I started viewing your channel and what can I say ...I'm proud that you've taken your time to enlighten many of us youths in this field ...thankyou
Swayne your videos are awesome. American Airline/Envoy has a great representative of their company. Thank you American Airline/Envoy and the Captains for allowing us to fly with you guys in the cockpit.
I always enjoy watching the envoy videos. They give a great behind the scenes of how airline pilots work. Thanks for the awesome vid.
I love how you film the videos so professionally and you are the best! 😇☺️
Thanks for the videos. I know it’s probably not easy to get these shots around normal airline ops. We all appreciate this so much. Great to get an inside view of things
I learn so much from your videos, Swayne. Loved this one! Great job, as always!
As always, a well produced video! Thanks Swayne!
Insane how much the starting pay has increased in only 5 years…. From $38.50 to $93
Love watching you Swayne!
Another great video holy cow, the cinematic shots are getting a lot better as well!
Great Video Swayne. Thank you for the inspiration and valuable information that explains the what you need to know and how to for aspiring regional pilots. Thanks again.
Fantastic and very informative. Love it. Keep up the top content.
Looking very nice....You see how cold it is here in Chicago and tonight with more snow coming in fly safe....
I thoroughly enjoy these videos of your working life and I’m a wee bit jealous of that but I was never going to be a pilot so I joined the parachute regiment instead
Im Glad to see your good motivation to work , many ppl say they hate Mondays by I don't see a difference from Friday
This aircraft accentuated it's exquisite performance on shorter laps , I bet nothing else can fly safely for consequisitve halves than this beloved bird
Thanks for that info Swayne and very well done Video. Keep up the good work and as You know it, it will work for in the long run.
I just want to say thank you for all the information you. It is very helpful with decision making
Another great video, Swayne! You do a great job explaining all these systems and processes. And the videography is outstanding, as usual. It is so great that Envoy partners with you to produce these videos. It gives great insight into being an airline pilot. I assume there is a limited number of hours you are allowed to fly each month?
I just found your channel yesterday and I am excited to see you fly a jet...great job Swayne ..and congratulations!
As usual, great video. Keep up the good work Swayne!
Excellent video Swayne...keep up the good work!!
Love your videos, Maybe I'll make the switch to the airlines someday. Can you do a video for military pilots transitioning to airlines, Pay, Quality of life, Base Locations etc?
Love your videos! You're really helping me to get even more motivated and inspired about aviation!
Can you talk more about commuting with a regional airline. Especially envoy. I am just about to enter the cadet program with envoy and would love to hear more from the inside of the company. Thanks for the great videos. You helped solidify my decision to sign on with envoy
Brilliant as always. Love these videos!
Thanks for the information Sir, such great schedules a Pilot can benefit from!
Thanks for your videos man!
Great video! Let negative comments pass by because some people are never happy and refuse to be happy for others. Enjoyed your vid. SWA RIC
You couldnt have said it better...
Awesome vid, bud 👍. Working on my PPL right now.
AnnoyingVulture Same mate ✌🏻
That was under the old pay scales when he was working there. Pay is drastically increased now. Running the numbers with $90/hr new FO pay.. Now that OT trip would make ~$1429..Assuming same per diem. Not bad!!
I really love and appreciate your video's man! Please keep them coming. I'm currently flying the 737 in Europe and 'romanticizing' about flying in the US. Your video's are giving me valuable insights!
You'll love it in America if you come to a good city. Some places I reccomend are Nashville, phoenix, dallas, or anywhere in new england. I used to be in europe and then came here to the us.
@@colelockridge5816 Great to hear that! I've been to both Dallas and Phoenix (Father lives here) and those area's are indeed great! Looking to soon discover more though!
@@IHaulBoxes yep if you can find a job in nashville I think it's the greatest city in the world
When a senior airline pilot wears David Clarks and the new guy has a Bose headset, something is thematically wrong right there. I almost picked up a used set of Lightspeed....but for a local VFR pilot, G1000 or not, what for? Just about as useful as buying an iPad for the sake of having ForeFlight. A luxury which value I won't fully utilize. In this cockpit, for sure!
You are an excellent spokesmen for your company. I am sure they appreciate the free advertising.
It would be really cool to see some like full cockpit landings or takeoffs as a separate video instead of seeing them in another video
congrats on the journey. I've learned so much. thx for sharing.
You're the man Swayne!
The ERJ series’s is one of my favorite aircraft

Wow, the contract has certainly improved since I left that shithole in 2014. I'm not concerned with Eaglevoy seeing this because I was already told I was "un-rehireable" because in spite of putting in over 2 weeks notice, the CP didn't read it until it was les than 2 weeks LOL. OT on RSV used to not pay anything unless you went over 75 hours. Glad it's better for you guys now, and I hope that the PSA jumpseat ban is still in effect.
Nice video as always. Overtime is my life.
Because you look like my son and you are young I show him all your vids in hopes he considers this career, we will see. Thank You!! (also with permission I will show my students)
Go for it! Feel free to share. The goal is to get more kids into flying... So I love it!
I have ran into burning buildings. Got shot at. Punched by and ran after bad guys. Pilots for me. Way braver. LoL. I can fly now. Just never get comfortable with it. No clue how you do it. Hats off to all of you.
Your PIC looks like he is in his 60s. Do some PICs just choose to remain with the regionals and not bother to make the transition up?
❤️👍🏻👍🏻 Thank you for your information,Swayne.
Love your informative videos! If you have flown the ORD - AZO route, you have most likely had my wife and kids on your flight.
Looking good !
Lots of wx flying up there.
See you in the big one's soon.
Awesome in-flight shots!
I didn't know pilots had this option at the airlines. Thanks for the info Swayne love your vids!
Awesome as always
Great work Swayne!!
Outstanding 👍👍. Subscribed
Very good video. Viewers should understand that trip coverage sequence and pay varies widely between carriers.
Man I could only imagine the feeling of being the pilot of a 145 and seeing a MAX8 on the taxiway 😍
Hey Swayne, I think I saw you at MMAS (Aguascalientes International Airport Jesus Teran) today February 20th . I fly the Emb 145 as well, I'm in my 30th leg of training, beautiful airplane, have good flights partner!!
Congratulations on 83k!
Great job as always!!
Nice video as usual !
Thanks Swayne You have a great TH-cam Channel I can’t wait to grow up so I can be a pilot!
GREAT VIDEO!
GO SWAYNE, amazing as always.
PS: Thanks for the tip, we gon be rich haha
Abdoul Sene rich? not at $38
@@tonymerlot9305 well 618$ + on your paycheck is a pretty good amount
@@abdoulsene2793 I agree, especially for one day of flying
600 is a daily FO rate in some corporate outfits
Adam K 2 days
Loving this!
Great vid, Swayne!
Love these videos!
Awesome video!

Swayne, Excellent video. What camera are you using, that is exceptionally sharp?
Yay! New video!
Swayne, I just want to say how much I enjoy your videos. I’m a pilot myself although after flying in the military I wound up not going with the airlines and fly for pleasure instead. However, I enjoy living vicariously through your videos. You’re a fantastic ambassador for commercial aviation so keep up the good work. Now...if I could only find a part time flying job that would let me fly periodically without having to give up my business, that would be ideal. Have any ideas?
Very informative! Great video 🔥
Very informative Swayne! I hope to work as an airline pilot just like you one day!
Love your videos
You are a great pilote love your videos so much and am learning a lot from you thank you😉😉
Welldone swayne
Man i just love your vids
awesome video as always.thanks
Great overview. Thanks.
Also, I'll ask again in this video. What luggage do you use?
You have a very good eye for interesting shots!
This enables the company to spend less on training. Do the OT now before your company goes away.
