Southwest Airlines Co.’s tentative labor agreement with its pilots, reached after more than four years of negotiations, may be in danger now that Delta Air Lines has a pending deal that would pay its aviators more. The Southwest Airlines Pilots Association is seeking to reopen some sections of an accord reached Aug. 29 and has requested a meeting with CEO Gary Kelly. Pilots at major U.S. airlines typically seek industry-leading pay in contract talks, and Southwest’s union said it had succeeded in that goal before the Delta agreement on Friday. Hawaiian Airlines’ pilots also are in contract talks and said Monday they made progress on key issues last week during negotiations.
