Raises and maternity leaves for United Airlines pilots

Raises and maternity leaves for United Airlines pilots
United Airlines has set the bar for the rest of the industry after the union representing its pilots has approved a tentative deal that would give the aviators pay raises of more than 14%. This is the first major US carrier to have reached a deal since the covid 19 pandemic. This agreement comes when the airline and others struggle with a pilot shortage. This has pushed many airlines to cut their schedules short 

The new contract faces a vote by rank-and-file pilots that will conclude in mid-July. Under the new agreement approved on Friday, pilots will get more than 14.5% in pay increases within 18 months, according to Air Line Pilots Association, the union that represents 14,000 United pilots. 

The pay for pilots at United as of 2020 ranged from about $73,000 a year for an early-career first officer on the carrier’s smallest aircraft to more than $337,000 for a wide-body captain. However, this pay could vary depending on how often pilots fly. Meanwhile, the new two-year agreement also comes with eight weeks of maternity leave which is a first for the US carrier. United has said that women comprise 7% of its pilot ranks. This win has also set the tone for negotiations at other large U.S. carriers, including Delta Air Lines, American Airlines and Southwest Airlines, as unions seek quality-of-life improvements after two years of the pandemic.
