Talks between the pilots and the airline have been deadlocked for three years.

Alaska Airlines planes are shown parked at gates with Mount Rainier in the background at sunrise, Monday, March 1, 2021 at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport in Seattle.SEATAC, Wash. — Dozens of flights at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport are either canceled or delayed Friday morning.

Volumes are expected to be around 80% to 85% of pre-pandemic levels. That’s close to the busiest travel days since August 2021. “It’s also vital for Alaska Airlines to negotiate a deal that allows us to maintain growth and profitability for a strong future. It’s crucial we continue to provide all of our employees with competitive pay and benefits as we hire more people, invest in new planes and fly our guests to new destinations. We believe the goals of the company and the goals of our pilots complement each other.

We’re offering a top of scale wage of $280 per hour for captains and a market wage adjustment a year after the contract is ratified to keep our pilots’ wages competitive with their peers at other airlines. For reference, an Alaska captain’s average salary is currently $341,000 per year. For first officers, we’ve proposed a rate of $100 per hour, which would be the #1 new hire rate in the nation.
