The Allied Pilots Association, which represents 15,000 American Airlines pilots, held a strike authorization vote in April to put pressure on the carrier for higher salary and better working conditions. Their last pay increase was in 2019.
-North American pilots took fresh steps on Monday to make workforce gains, with American Airlines Group Inc pilots backing a strike mandate and Air Canada pilots supporting a merger with a larger union.
More than 96% of APA membership voted and over 99% voted in favor of authorizing a strike, the union said in a statement. ALPA's board would need to approve the merger later in May. American Airlines pilots are also considering a merger with ALPA, with discussion to be raised in early June, an Allied spokesperson said.
