The Allied Pilots Association and American Airlines have reached a tentative agreement for a new contract.  APA President Keith Wilson seems optimistic about it and describes it as an industry standard contract.  American Airlines seems to think it’s got a deal as well.

I’m pleased to hear a deal has been reached but . . .

There was a deal a few months ago that the pilots voted down.  We’ll see just how much the deal has changed once some details leak.  It’s possible that the pilots are ready for a deal and, if so, they’ll be likely to vote on it.

Maybe I’m cynical but I remain a little skeptical that this deal is truly done.
