United Airlines Pilots Reject Contract, Continue to Push for Raises
United Airlines pilots have overwhelmingly rejected a tentative contract, the latest move showing the resolve by airline unions to push for significant pay raises.
The deal would have given pilots raises of nearly 15% over 18 months, according to the union.
The Air Line Pilots Association said Tuesday that 94% of the nearly 10,000 United pilots who took part voted against a tentative agreement that the union and United reached in June.
