Pay
Unofficial figures. Not from an agreement or the airline: collected from pilot forums, salary sites and other public sources. Treat them as indicative.
Swedish collective agreement (SPF / Svenska Flygbranschen)
No official or press pay figure found. The only figures are from a Flygtorget forum post (13 Sep 2021): captain base 42,000 and first officer ('styrman') base 25,000, plus sector pay of 150 (captain) / 100 (FO) per sector, written with the Swedish ':-' kronor notation. The post does not state the period, gross/net or aircraft; Swedish salaries are normally quoted monthly. Another 2021 post in the thread mentions about 27,000 excluding supplements without naming the rank. These predate the 14 Feb 2026 collective agreement between Svensk Pilotförening and Svenska Flygbranschen (signed after a strike notice; previous deal expired Mar 2025), whose pay levels are not public; press says cost increases stay within the 2025 industry benchmark ('märket'). ReadyForTakeoff (1 Jul 2026) lists estimated annual figures (FO about 25,000-44,000, Captain about 40,000-58,000) that it treats as euros although its source gives no currency; not used. PilotJobsNetwork's old BRA page only has 2007 data and is not used.
