Allegiant Pilots Ratify Contract Featuring 40 Percent Wage Increases

Flight crews at Allegiant Air have officially approved a fresh two-year collective bargaining agreement that delivers an immediate 40 percent boost to average hourly wages. The deal, which saw massive voter turnout from the pilot group, also triggers the release of hundreds of millions in delayed retention bonuses while establishing a 15 percent direct company contribution to retirement accounts. For aspiring airline aviators, this contract sets a highly competitive new benchmark for first-year first officer pay at the ultra-low-cost carrier level.
