Cathay doesn't pay like it used to but I expect it's still in the top 2 or 3 of major airlines, when you take into account the low HK tax rate and the fact they pay your million dollar mortgage for you. (Doesn't apply so much to the overseas based CX pilots who have to pay local taxes and no free house).
I also believe that some of the UN contract pilots out there are on very good coin, of course they do have to be based in **** holes like Iraq and Afghanistan and Angola.
