Flight Crew taxes made simple
Are you an airline pilot or flight attendant? Do you pay taxes?! If so, you might be missing out on a large tax deduction for airline crew members, the per diem deduction.
What's a Per Diem Calculation?
Most airline pilots, flight attendants, and corporate flight crews are paid per diem while they are at work. Your company pays you a certain amount, no matter where you are. However, the government has established per diem rates depending on what city you are in. The difference between these rates and what you are getting paid is tax deductible!
Great, your thinking. But how do I figure out what per diem rates the government uses for the cities I have had overnights in? That's where we come in...
The Difference can be Substantial
Your per diem calculation will depend on what cities you often lay over in, and how much your company has reimbursed you already. The difference can be substantial, and often results in several hundred dollars of credit on your income taxes!
Using our calculator, you can determine exactly how much the government allows for the cities you have overnighted in.
