Welcome

Welcome to unitednegotiations.com, our website to provide updated information regarding negotiations between the new United and our various employee groups. As we integrate our operations, we are also focused on negotiating joint collective bargaining agreements that will bring together our employees. We are meeting regularly with all of our unions and are confident we can reach agreements that are fair to our employees and fair to the company. We encourage you to sign up to receive regular updates on our progress.
