Captain & First Officer — International flights. Based at Rome FCO. Key requirements: Required License: EASA ATPL (ENAC-certified); English: ICAO Level 4 or above. We have not been able to confirm flight-hour requirements the airline publishes; the airline’s careers page is linked under Jobs above.

Dividing our estimated annual figures by 12, ITA Airways captains earn about $11K a month and first officers about $7.1K. 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 ITA Airways first officers at $85K and captains at $135K — a step of about $50K, or roughly 1.6×. 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 $135K and first officers at $85K 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.
