MUMBAI: After nearly three years, budget carrier IndiGo has decided to hike the salaries of its pilots and cabin crew as well as other categories of employees effective this month.
The commanders at the largest carrier had last month objected to the hiring of pilots from the now-grounded Jet Airways with additional sops like joining bonus, alleging that their wages remained constant for the past three years.
“I am pleased to announce a salary increment for both our crew and non-crew employees effective April,” the airline’s HR head Raj Raghavan said in a communication to the employees Thursday without quantifying the hike.
