Changing to a low salary job to fulfil a career dream

Currently in my early 30s, I'm considering pursuing my one of my dreams of being a cabin crew with a foreign airline (JAL). I heard have an average salary of 2.8k a month including allowances all in. This is going to be a 60% pay cut from my current job which I don't enjoy in the first place.

My ultimate career goal is to fly (pilot or cabin crew) because I like the operational nature of the job, but I'm also concerned that if I eventually don't make it, I might not have any potential career prospects there after.

I'm planning to change job. What should i put as my expected salary? Where can i find information on the salary range for the job position?

I am getting paid below the median salary. Should i quit for a higher salary but a positive thing in my job is that it is manageable, bosses are nice. It just lacks growth and low salary.

Job market seems hot! If you have changed jobs recently, kindly share 1) your average base salary increment % 2) Industry you are in TIA!

Question from the community: I need some serious advice. Should I quit my current job to join my dream job but pay up 3 months salary as liquidated damages or stay put?
