Commerical space flight is only successful if it's not a monopoly.
According to Chat GPT:
"Experienced astronauts, especially those who have flown in space, can be promoted to GS-14 or GS-15, with salaries ranging from approximately $92,000 to $144,000 annually.
While astronauts do not typically receive additional pay specifically for time spent in space, their pay continues according to their rank and position while on missions. The pay remains consistent regardless of whether they are on Earth or in space, though they do receive additional allowances for mission-related activities"
To be honest I was expecting much higher than that and also generous mission rates

I would expect comparable to military pay grades, it's not exactly a career path you would choose for the money.LimaDelta said:

I can't remember the exact details but the Apollo astronauts were disappointed not to receive milage payments for their trip to the moon. I think they asked (very tongue in cheek) for half a million miles at however many cents per mile and NASA thought they were being serious "Experienced astronauts, especially those who have flown in space, can be promoted to GS-14 or GS-15, with salaries ranging from approximately $92,000 to $144,000 annually.
