How much do CFIs at Thrust get paid?

Pay varies by experience, the certificate level you’re instructing, and how many hours you fly per month. CFI pay is one of the things an advisor will walk through during the admissions conversation.

Specific pay scales aren’t published publicly because they change with market conditions and the broader industry hiring environment.

The structure is designed so that an active full-time CFI can comfortably cover living expenses while building hours toward an airline job, which typically takes 18 to 24 months from CFI start to 1,500 hours.
