Leaders of AirTran Airways' pilots union gave a "qualified endorsement" to a tentative contract that would boost pay by more than 5 percent — and put it "squarely ahead of" rates for pilots flying similar-sized planes at archrival Delta Air Lines, the union says.

Thank God we're finally able to talk about new contracts where the employees actually receive raises rather than paycuts. Hopefully the race to the bottom has stopped and we can all begin to recoup some of what was lost post-911. Congrats to Airtran and its pilots
