Delta Air Lines has today announced that employees will be getting a 4% pay increase as of June 1, 2026. Well, all non-union employees…
Delta has pretty consistently offered its employees annual pay increases, and this will be the fifth consecutive annual pay increase. We saw a 4% pay increase in June 2025, a 5% pay increase in June 2024, a 5% pay increase in April 2023, and a 4% pay increase in May 2022.
This latest pay bump amounts to an investment of around $500 million. This arrangement includes all employees worldwide, other than those covered by an industry or government requirement, or a collective bargaining agreement. For example, pilots are the biggest group at Delta that are unionized, and they ratified a lucrative contract in March 2023, with massive pay raises.
