Aeroméxico, pilots reach agreement, avert strike
A strike planned for Wednesday by Aeroméxico pilots has been avoided after their union reached an agreement with the airline for improved pay and conditions. It is the second time this week that a scheduled work stoppage has been averted after ASPA agreed to a request from federal Labour secretary Roberto Campa to defer action planned for Monday. Pilots at the centre of the dispute — so-called “B Contract” pilots who started working for Aeroméxico after 2010 — said that ASPA accepted on their behalf the 5.15% salary increase offered by the airline and an agreement was made to review salaries again next year. A wholesale review of the B contract, which sets salaries and benefits 40% lower than those received by pilots who commenced employment before 2010, was scheduled for 2020. <br/>
