FORT WORTH, TEXAS – American Airlines pilots, represented by the Allied Pilots Association (APA), ratified a new four-year agreement with the company. The new contract will deliver more than $9 billion of compensation and quality-of-life benefits to American’s 15,000 pilots.
“Today is a really great day for our pilots and airline,” said American’s CEO Robert Isom. “This agreement will help American immediately expand our pilot training capacity to support under-utilized aircraft and future flying and provide our pilots with more opportunities to progress in their careers.
