British Airways Pilots Agree To A New Contract

New Pact Approved By A Nine To One Margin

A ballot of British Airways pilots closed Monday following the dispute over pay and terms and conditions.

Members of the British Airline Pilots Association (BALPA) employed by BA voted nearly 9 to 1 to accept the final agreement which was proposed by ACAS and recommended by BALPA and its BA reps.

Back in September, BA pilots staged a two-day walkout that forced the airline to cancel nearly 100 percent of its flights on the 9th and 10th. Nearly all BALPA-represented pilots supported the labor action. Another strike, planned for September 27, was called off by the pilots after the two sides returned to the bargaining table.

The labor actions were challenged by the airline in court earlier this year.

Resolution of the dispute means BA will continue to operate on its regular schedule through the holiday season.
