US Delta Air Lines Pilots Write Open Letter to Customers Amidst Service Dismay

“We have been working on our days off, flying a record amount of overtime to help you get to your destination,” the letter written by Delta Pilots states. “At the current rate, by this fall, our pilots will have flown more overtime in 2022 than in the entirety of 2018 and 2019 combined, our busiest years to date.”

Delta Pilot wrote the letter in response to overwhelming flight cancellations and tremendous dismay of thousands of customers.

Accordingly, the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA) is seeking to negotiate a new contract with Delta Airlines to which they plan to picket the airline’s upcoming shareholder meeting.
