In general, Cabin Crew members earn more than Ground Staff professionals, primarily due to the nature of their job and additional allowances. Cabin Crew salaries typically include base pay, flying allowances, layover allowances, and travel perks, which can significantly increase their monthly earnings.

On average, Cabin Crew members earn INR 40,000 to INR 75,000 per month, depending on their airline and experience. In comparison, Ground Staff professionals usually earn INR 18,000 to INR 35,000 per month at the entry-level, with potential salary growth over time. However, Ground Staff roles are more stable and do not involve frequent travel, making them suitable for those who prefer a fixed work location.
