Air Canada Pilots Call Off Strike

Air Canada Wants Arbitration to Avoid Service Interruption

Air Canada passengers can now travel again on their original booked dates after 5200 pilots agree with its Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA).

 Air Canada today said it has reached a tentative, four-year collective agreement with the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA), representing more than 5,200 pilots at Air Canada and Air Canada Rouge.

The new agreement recognizes the contributions and professionalism of Air Canada’s pilot group while providing a framework for the future growth of the airline. Terms of the new agreement will remain confidential pending a ratification vote by the membership, expected to be completed over the next month, and approval by the Air Canada Board of Directors.

Customers who used the airline’s labor disruption goodwill policy to change their flights originally scheduled from between September 15 and 23, 2024, to another date before November 30, 2024, can change their booking back to their original flight in the same cabin at no cost, providing there is space available.

Air Canada and Air Canada Rouge will continue to operate as normal and for more information customers should consult www.aircanada.com/action
