Aircraft Service Attendants pay in Maryland and Pennsylvania
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Aircraft Service Attendants is $71,740 per year in Maryland. It is $38,830 per year in Pennsylvania. Maryland is 84.8% above Pennsylvania on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 53-6032 and the same annual wage metric. Median means the middle of each area's published wage spread. It is not one worker's pay. The larger median is not proof that one place gives a better job or a better result. It is one wage fact from one source period.
BLS lists 240 wage and salary jobs in Maryland and 800 in Pennsylvania. Those are survey job counts, not open posts. Read pay, job scale, local share, and price level as separate facts before you make a choice.
