Today Delta announced plans to raise its minimum starting wage to $19 an hour for employees and provide a 5% pay raise to eligible employees worldwide, representing an approximately $500 million annual investment in employees across the company.
On Valentine's Day, Delta employees received a check for 10.4% of their eligible earnings. This payout marks an important milestone for Delta’s profit-sharing program, bringing the total paid out to employees since its inception in 2007 to $11 billion.
Delta CEO Ed Bastian has authored an open letter to business, government and community leaders on the importance of financial well-being and solving the problem of financial insecurity.
Delta’s strong 2023 earnings and the profit-sharing payout are direct results of the exceptional work and commitment of Delta’s people throughout a challenging operational year.
Launched in 2018, Delta’s Propel Pilot Career Path program identifies, selects and develops the next generation of pilots. The largest-ever class just joined the Propel Company Path, diversifying the pilot population and contributing to the steady pipeline of talented pilots.
Delta’s Propel program officially opened the Propel Flight Academy on Tuesday in Vero Beach, Florida. There, in partnership with Skyborne Aviation, aspiring pilots can enroll in a formal flight training program that from day one maps out a course to a job as a Delta pilot. Students can receive up to $20,000 in financial support.
