All Nippon Airways Pilot Salary in 2025<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All Nippon Airways is one of the leading carriers in Asia and until some years ago, they hired pilots from overseas as well to meet a growing demand for air travel around the world. Their salary numbers, however, fall reasonably short of their competition in Asia with the likes of Emirates, Cathay Pacific, Qatar Airways, and Singapore Airlines<\/a> offering better pay packets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, among the Japanese pilots, ANA remains a prestigious landing spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ANA FIRST OFFICER SALARY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

ANA first officers are responsible for assisting the pilot <\/a>in flying the plane from one place to another. As with most airlines around the world, they are tasked with handling communication with the air traffic controllers as well as carrying out safety checks of the aircraft. Under the captain’s shadow, they also at times do the commanding of the aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All Nippon Airways pays its junior first officers a yearly salary starting from JPY 8 million (approx. US$55,000) <\/strong>while those with a few years of experience can touch an annual number of JPY 14 million (approx. US$95,000)<\/strong>. ANA co-pilots are guaranteed a minimum of 70 hours of flying per month while overtime and any additional hours are compensated on a pro-rata basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ANA CAPTAIN SALARY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

ANA captains lead the cockpit crew as well as the cabin crew and are tasked with being in command of the flight. They make vital decisions throughout the course of the flight, especially regarding navigation and during any potential emergency situations. With that said, they fly the plane more often than not as well alongside mentoring first officers to become captains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All Nippon Airways captains receive a salary starting from JPY 14 million (approx. US$95,000) annually <\/strong>while the more senior individuals can expect to earn a yearly amount of JPY 30 million (approx. US$190,000)<\/strong>. In line with their first officers, ANA assures its captains a minimum of 70 flying hours every month with pro-rata payment on any additional hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The high variance in ANA’s salary numbers is caused by seniority as well as the type of aircraft flown, which will end up being extremely influential salaries in determining an aviator’s salary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
