United pilots ratify 2-year contract extension but other talks ongoing
UNITED Airlines (UAL) announced that the company's pilots have ratified a two-year contract extension.
"This extension provides further momentum for United as we work together with the shared purpose of making United the best airline for our employees and customers," said UAL president and CEO Oscar Munoz.
"I want to recognise the efforts of both ALPA's and United's negotiating teams. Their hard work enabled us to achieve this ratified contract extension more than a year ahead of the amendable date."
Said Air Line Pilots Association chairman Jay Heppne: "This agreement recogniSes our contributions to making United Airlines a world class airline, and acknowledges our commitment to making United the airline of choice for business and leisure travellers."
The agreement runs through January 2019 and covers United's more than 12,000 pilots.
United is now in contract talks ramp service and passenger service agents, storekeepers, load planners, maintenance and fleet technical instructors of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers.
UAL is also in mediated talks with the Association of Flight Attendants and recently announced an agreement with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters yet to be ratified by the membership.
