The answer to this question depends on many factors. New hires (actually trainees, as it takes years to become a fully-certified professional controller) make around $20,000 a year. Experienced controllers at very busy facilities (such as Chicago, Atlanta, etc.) can make in excess of $200,000 when differentials and overtime are included.

Air Traffic controllers can earn up to $177,000 before overtime and holiday pay. They average around $100,000 per year and that number has been steadily declining since the government cut their pay by 30% in September of 2006.

Answer 4

Depends on your paygrade and time in service. No one in the military gets paid specificly by their job. You get paid by your rank. So a fry cook that is the same rank as you, will get paid the same as you. Even though his job is easy.

Air traffic controllers earn relatively high pay and have good benefits. Median annual earnings of air traffic controllers in May 2004 were $102,030. The middle 50 percent earned between $78,170 and $126,260. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $57,720, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $139,210.

The average annual salary, excluding overtime earnings, for air traffic controllers in the Federal Government-which employs 90 percent of the total-in nonsupervisory, supervisory, and managerial positions was $106,380 in May 2004. The Air Traffic Control pay system classifies each air traffic facility into one of eight levels with corresponding pay bands. Under this pay system, controllers' salaries are determined by the rating of the facility. The higher the rating, the higher the controller's salary and the greater the demand on the controller's judgment, skill, and decision making ability.

Depending on length of service, air traffic controllers receive 13 to 26 days of paid vacation and 13 days of paid sick leave each year, in addition to life insurance and health benefits. Controllers also can retire at an earlier age and with fewer years of service than other Federal employees. Air traffic controllers are eligible to retire at age 50 with 20 years of service as an active air traffic controller or after 25 years of active service at any age. There is a mandatory retirement age of 56 for controllers who manage air traffic. However, Federal law provides for exemptions to the mandatory age of 56, up to age 61, for controllers having exceptional skills and experience.
