PHOENIX, AZ – Mesa Air Group, Inc. announced today that its 1,300 pilots, represented by the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA), have ratified a new 24-month labor contract.
“We are delighted our pilots have ratified this new agreement,” said Jonathan Ornstein, Mesa Air Group chairman and chief executive officer. “In supporting this contract, our pilots have demonstrated their understanding of current industry conditions and have approved an agreement that both addresses their concerns and fully maintains Mesa’s industry-leading cost and productivity advantage. The agreement was concluded in record time, and I would like to thank all of our pilots, and in particular Captain Kevin Wilson, ALPA master executive council chairman, and the pilot negotiating committee led by Captain Albert Montoya, Captain Patrick Phillips, and Captain Casey Cole. Their dedication resulted in a tentative agreement in just over nine months at a time when most pilot negotiations last several years,” added Ornstein.
