xCruzo Brief
New wage contracts are widening pay differences among U.S. legacy airline flight attendants, effectively splitting the workforce into two groups. Under hourly pay systems, American Airlines secured a new contract in 2024, United flight attendants ratified a deal in May 2026, and Delta has remained non-union but still raised pay and benefits competitively. Starting pay at United is $38.21 per hour (from July 30, 2026), rising to $39.36 in July 2027 for first-year crew. American starts at $36.81, while Delta lists $38.40. All three offer per diem away from base and additional incentives such as boarding pay.
