ALPA

Some pilots at American are looking to make a change in unions. The airline’s roughly 16,000 pilots are currently represented by the Allied Pilots Association.

ALPA President Capt. Jason Ambrosi delved into the debated pilot shortage and shake-ups in Washington during an interview with AirlineGeeks.

WestJet may soon start hiring temporary foreign pilots. The low-cost carrier continues to face a shortage of pilots, particularly in the left seat.

ALPA has expressed reservations about President Trump nominating Republic CEO Bryan Bedford to head the Federal Aviation Administration.

SkyWest Charter continues to push for final Department of Transportation approval despite ongoing pushback from labor groups.

Negotiations between ALPA and FedEx have been underway for around four years. Their contract became amendable in November 2021.

Pilots at Canada’s largest airline voted in favor of a new four-year agreement last week, which now stands as Air Canada’s largest-ever labor contract.

Described as the airline’s largest-ever labor contract, the deal moves pilot compensation more in line with their U.S. peers.

Air Canada and the union representing more than 5,200 pilots announced Saturday night they have reached a tentative agreement.

The lack of concurrence between Air Canada and ALPA regarding a new pilot contract is leading towards an imminent strike by the labor group.
