This one is a surprise to many, but its true – pilots have a lower divorce rate. According to data from the U.S. Census Bureaus American Community Survey 5-year data, from 2009-2018, the divorce rate for pilots was 30.5%. Much lower than the 53% for the most divorce-prone group: casino gaming managers.
Are pilots unfaithful?
The fact is that yes pilots are constantly being placed in situations that could welcome cheating, but the reality is people are disloyal in their relationships regardless of their profession, and not all pilots fall under this general stereotype. Dating or marrying a pilot does however take a certain type of person.
Why couples are not allowed to fly together?
The notion that they couldnt fly together because they would always be arguing is ludicrous. Trained and competent pilots will see the same things and pay attention to the same details. Their goals are the same: to get themselves and their passengers back on the ground safely.
