The union that represents about 3,100 NetJets fractional-share pilots— NetJets Association of Shared Aircraft Pilots (NJASAP)—said a survey of its members indicates that 40 percent “expect to leave the company within a year due to the breakdown in negotiations to secure a fair and competitive contract…” The survey also showed that “two-thirds of pilots no longer view NetJets as a career destination…and 20 percent of pilots expect to leave the company within a year, regardless.”

For its part, NetJets said it has offered pilots a compound 52.5 percent wage increase through the current union collective bargaining agreement (CBA) that ends in 2029. “The percentage base wage increases included in the Company’s latest proposal exceed those that were in the recently ratified CBAs at Delta, American, and United Airlines,” NetJets wrote in a fact sheet about this issue.
