The contract goes into effect immediately, including a ratification payment to acknowledge that pilots have been without a collective agreement since September 30, 2023. The new agreement will expire on September 29, 2027.
According to The Canadian Press, on the basis that a pilot works a 75-hour week, newer recruits will earn between CA$75,700 ($55,000) and CA$134,000 ($97,000) and up to CA$187,000 ($136,000) in Year Five. An experienced captain flying a Boeing 777 could earn CA$367,000 ($267,000).
Commenting on the agreement, Michael Rousseau, President and Chief Executive of Air Canada said: “We are very pleased this new collective agreement has been approved by our pilot group. The agreement is mutually beneficial and it will keep our pilots the best compensated in Canada and provide the work-life balance improvements they were seeking. At the same time, the agreement gives our company flexibility and creates a framework for future growth of the airline and its network. We look forward to working with our pilots under this renewed partnership.”
