How the pay is built
Country-specific contracts: in Chile roughly CLP 800,000-1,200,000/month for junior crew and CLP 1,300,000-1,800,000+ with seniority, including flight-hour pay and viáticos; Brazilian and Peruvian scales differ but land in a similar USD band. Local taxes apply and exchange-rate swings move the USD equivalents.
Income is taxed at this base, so compare the figure above against tax-free Gulf packages carefully: a smaller tax-free salary can be worth more in real terms. You fund your own housing, so local rent is the number that decides what this salary is really worth.
Accommodation
Crew live at their own cost in their base city; hotels and per diems are provided when flying away from base.
