Kelowna, B.C.—Last night, Kelowna Flightcraft pilot leaders, represented by the Air Line Pilots Association, Int’l (ALPA), approved a tentative four-year agreement with KF Aerospace management after more than 14 months of negotiations. The agreement will now be presented to the airline’s pilots for ratification.

The tentative agreement reflects progress on key priorities, such as compensation, scheduling, and quality of life.

“Our goal was to secure meaningful improvements that better reflect today’s industry standards,” said Kelowna Flightcraft Master Executive Council chair Capt. Andreas Geng. “This agreement represents significant progress, and we encourage all pilots to review the details carefully before the vote.”

Kelowna Flightcraft’s 13 pilots operate scheduled cargo and specialized air services throughout Canada.
