Key requirements: License: ATPL (ICAO-compliant); English: ICAO Level 4 or above; Contract: Fixed-term contract, USD-denominated. We have not been able to confirm flight-hour requirements the airline publishes; the airline’s careers page is linked under Jobs above. In Fiji, the tourism and aviation industries are closely intertwined. The airline also operates Japan routes.

What is the Fiji Airways pilot salary per month?

We do not publish a monthly figure for Fiji Airways. An annual figure divided by twelve is not what lands in a given month — what you are paid moves with the hours you fly.

Is the Fiji Airways pilot salary before or after tax?

The Fiji Airways figures on this page are take-home (net) amounts as stated in the source; the pre-tax amount is not given. Take-home depends on where you are resident and on your own deductions, so no single percentage applies, and we do not publish one. Airlines based in countries with no personal income tax — the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia — leave more of the same gross figure in your hand.
