FedEx pilots ratified a labor deal with 83% approval, locking in a 40% pay increase and annual raises starting in 2028.
FedEx pilots approved a four-year labor agreement with 83% support, ending over five years of negotiations. The contract, effective June 29, includes a 40% hourly pay increase, back pay for delayed raises, and 3% annual raises beginning in 2028.
The deal addresses compensation, retirement, scheduling, and job protections, resolving prolonged disputes between union leadership and management. Prior negotiations faced internal union divisions and required mediation to reach consensus.
Union officials stated the focus will now shift to implementing the agreement and advocating for pilots moving forward.
