Dear Mr/Ms Admin,

I have checked with my friends with respective Airlines. Captains flying Wide body planes rack in a median of $271,888 per annum, which excludes allowances as you mentioned is quite there about for most senior crew.

Inclusive all the allowances in will be close to a range of 300K - 500K++ annual (depending on seniority of the Captain in the Airlines).

But again I agree with you totally, maybe it's not a common job. Hence it is not classified in the 100 jobs or taken notice commonly.
