ALPA India alleges that Air India and IndiGo have a tacit hiring agreement which won’t allow them to hire each other’s pilots.

A decade ago, pilot salaries at Air Canada (AC) and United Airlines (UA) were nearly identical; however, today, the American counterparts earn double.
The United States (US) pilot union opposes the New Retirement Age Law, increasing the required pilot age from 65 to 67.
The proposal to form a merger negotiations committee, which could have led to American Airlines (AA) pilots leaving their union to join the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA), is rejected.
