Answers so far
Bamboo Airways captain pay is estimated at about $116K per year, pre-tax. These are our own estimates from public information, not figures the airline publishes.
Bamboo Airways first officer pay is estimated at about $66K per year, pre-tax, rising with seniority.
Pilot Recruitment — Domestic & international. Key requirements: License: ATPL (ICAO); Type: A320 or B787. A past vacancy for A320 captains (closing date 15 October 2025) asked for 4,500 hours total (1,500 on the A320) and 1,500 hours PIC on multi-crew aircraft (500 on the A320).
Dividing our estimated annual figures by 12, Bamboo Airways captains earn about $9.7K a month and first officers about $5.5K. What actually lands each month moves with block hours flown, and where an annual bonus is paid the regular monthly figure sits lower with a spike in the bonus month.
We estimate Bamboo Airways first officers at $66K and captains at $116K — a step of about $50K, or roughly 1.8×. The actual figure moves with seniority, type rating and the routes you fly.
Every figure on this page is gross, before income tax. We estimate captains at $116K and first officers at $66K pre-tax, and income tax, social insurance and any local levies come out of that. Take-home depends on where you are resident and on your own deductions, so no single percentage applies. Airlines based in countries with no personal income tax — the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia — leave more of the same gross figure in your hand.
