Swiss International Air Lines (SWISS) and the Aeropers pilots’ association reached agreement at the weekend after two further days of negotiations on the cornerstones of a new collective labour agreement (CLA) for SWISS’s cockpit personnel. The new CLA features improvements both in the plannability of pilots’ social lives and on the salary front.

“I am very pleased that, after almost two years of tough negotiations, we and Aeropers have been able to reach agreement on the cornerstones of a new CLA for our cockpit personnel,” says SWISS CEO Dieter Vranckx. “This is a substantial success for everyone involved which will restore the usual industrial calm for both our company and our customers. And I’m convinced that this new CLA will provide both a sound foundation for our pilots’ futures and the stability that is so vital to SWISS.”
