Cargojet pilots are set to receive a 46% wage increase over five years under a newly agreed deal. The company and pilots’ representatives outline the change as part of a broader compensation and scheduling arrangement.

The Winnipeg Free Press and The Globe and Mail both report that the agreement includes a 26% pay rise in the first year, followed by 5% annual increases for the next four years. Cargojet’s CEO links the wage adjustment to expected productivity improvements, emphasizing that operational performance gains are part of how the company views the agreement.

While both outlets describe the headline figure and the staged wage schedule, they differ slightly in emphasis: one source highlights the link to productivity, while the other focuses primarily on the pay timeline and percentage breakdown. Neither account suggests an alternative pay structure or an immediately different timetable.
