United, pilots agree on schedule reductions
to avoid nearly 3,000 furloughs

United Airlines’ pilots approved a deal to avoid nearly 3,000
job cuts through at least mid-2021, according to a person
familiar with the matter, marking the latest cost-cutting deal
between an airline and one of its biggest labor groups during
the coronavirus pandemic.

The Chicago-based carrier earlier this month said it planned
o furlough 2,850 pilots, starting Oct. 1, when $25 billion in
federal aid that protects airline-sector jobs expires. It later
reached a preliminary agreement with the pilots’ union to
reduce schedules and maintain pay rates, which was later
approved by the union members.

The airline is still planning to cut more than 13,000 jobs
beginning next month. American Airlines is planning to
slash about 19,000 jobs. Tens of thousands of other
employees across airlines have accepted carriers’
offers of buyouts or leaves of absence aimed at
reducing headcount.
