Immediate Pay Increase
We are accelerating the 5% wage increase from the Pandemic Recovery Agreement (LOA 20-05) to the December bid period.

The LOA provided a 5% hourly increase to current pay rates, as shown in the pay tables in the LOA, once United returns to consistent profitability. Under the terms of the LOA, the company could have waited until May 2023 bid period to pay out the 5% wage increase. Based on our results through Sept. 30 and guidance for the rest of 2022, however, the company has elected to implement these increases in the December 2022 bid period. This is a show of good faith and a down payment on a market-based, industry leading labor agreement. It’s also recognition of the role that you played in helping United survive the pandemic and recover so much stronger.
