Resources and Advice Focused for Pilots of United Airlines and their Families
United pilot families have access to a range of retirement and health benefit options— including your Pilot Retirement Account Plan (PRAP) 401(k), Retiree Health Account (RHA), Health Reimbursement Account (HRA), and Profit Sharing. These plans come with unique contribution rules, company contributions, and strategic considerations that can be difficult to navigate alone.
At Leading Edge, we help you understand the nuances of each option and make informed decisions aligned with your financial goals. We also guide you through United’s complex health benefit offerings to ensure your choices support both your short- and long-term needs.
Additionally, we offer investment management for your United Airlines 401(k) through Schwab, helping you stay on course with your retirement strategy.
Navigate Health Emergencies with Confidence
Aviation professionals face unique stressors – especially when it comes to maintaining their medical certification. Even minor health issues can lead to major financial consequences if you’re not properly prepared. As aviation families ourselves, we understand the stakes and the stress. Pilots have several ways to protect their income and their families from the financial impact of health emergencies. These include:
Short-term disability insurance
Long-term disability insurance
Loss of license coverage
Accrued sick time
Emergency savings
We work with pilot families to evaluate their options and create a tailored plan that fits their unique needs. And when a health emergency does occur, we’re here to help you navigate the financial side—so you can focus on recovery.
