MONTREAL — Air Canada has confirmed the ratification of new four-year collective agreements with its Flight Operations Crew Schedulers and In-Flight Crew Schedulers, both represented by Unifor.
The agreements, which were approved through a recent vote, will remain in effect until May 22, 2029, and cover approximately 190 employees across Canada, including about 100 Flight Operations Crew Schedulers and 90 In-Flight Crew Schedulers.
“On behalf of Air Canada, I would like to thank the members of the Unifor and Air Canada bargaining teams for their hard work and diligence in successfully negotiating these agreements. Kudos to both sides,” said Mike Abbott, Vice-President, Labour Relations.
Flight Operations Crew Schedulers and In-Flight Crew Schedulers play a key role in airline operations, managing the logistics required to ensure appropriate staffing across Air Canada’s mainline and Air Canada Rouge flights. Their responsibilities include coordinating crew schedules, managing rosters and arranging accommodations and transportation for flight and cabin crews.
