Federal Express Corporation pilots have successfully ratified a new collective bargaining agreement between the company and the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA) by a majority vote. The industry-leading agreement will take effect June 29 and represents a significant step forward for the FedEx airline and its 5,000 pilots.
