US airline flight crews, including those from Alaska Airlines and United, are increasingly frustrated over low pay and demanding better contracts as unions push for changes. Many are only compensated for flight time, leaving them struggling to make ends meet despite the airlines' healthy profits. Recent contract negotiations reflect a growing confidence among crew members, looking to resolve longstanding grievances regarding wages and hours worked. With unions authorized to strike if necessary, the outcome of these negotiations could set a precedent for the entire industry.
