American Airlines flight attendants have reached a tentative contract agreement that includes significant pay increases, up to 28% immediate raises, and full retro pay, totaling over $25,000 per crewmember. However, a recent standoff has emerged over a new pay deal, adding complexity to the negotiations. This agreement, positioning the wages slightly above Delta's rates and incorporating incremental raises over the next five years, marks a crucial milestone for the flight attendants, ensuring better compensation and financial security. The Points Guy adds that this deal ends in a week, highlighting the urgency of the situation.
