US-based United Airlines’ pilots will see an increase in salaries after reaching a labor agreement on Saturday, Reuters reports. Pilots are set to see a 34.5%-40.2% rise in pay, Reuters quotes the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA) as saying. ALPA and United managed to agree on significant improvements to compensation, vacation and other benefits, after the union previously refused to provide higher wages for pilots in short supply.
