UNITED Airlines and leaders of its flight attendants' union have agreed to a new labour contract that will unify the cabin crews for the first time since United's merger with Continental Airlines more than five years ago.
The deal, which still requires a vote by the union's full membership, would also raise United flight attendants' pay to a level that the union claims is the highest in the industry.
