New Contract Covers 150 Pilots

WestJet has tentatively reached an agreement with the Airline Pilots Association (ALPA) representing its 510 WestJet Encore pilots.

The tentative agreement will be presented to the ALPA membership group for ratification.

"We thank ALPA and the ALPA Master Executive Council for their strong commitment to working with us to come to an agreement that truly represents the interests of their membership and our business as a whole," said John Aaron, vice-president, Flight Operations and General Manager, WestJet Encore. "We look forward to the ratification of the agreement to the benefit of our guests, employees and shareholders."

"We are pleased we could reach an agreement and look forward to having our pilots vote on our first collectively bargained agreement," said Captain Ryan Petrie, WestJet Encore MEC Chairman.

"We would like to thank all those involved who have given their time and energy to allow us to reach this milestone," said Captain Ryan Leier, WestJet Encore MEC Vice-Chairman.
