The negotiation, which was previously not disclosed to the media, was presided over by Vice Premier Cheng Wen-tsan （鄭文燦）, Minister of Transportation and Communications Wang Kwo-tsai （王國材）, Deputy Minister of Labor Wang An-bang （王安邦） and other government officials.

The Taoyuan Union of Pilots and the airline signed the agreement at the Executive Yuan. In addition to the overall salary increase for EVA Airways’ employees that the airline had promised at the end of last year, the airline agreed to give captains a raise of NT$13,500 per month, while the monthly salaries of senior first officers and first officers would increase by NT$11,000 and NT$10,000, respectively.

The airline also pledged to raise the hotel allowances for pilots during the first half of this year.

The union agreed that, from the effective date of the signing of the agreement between workers and management until May 31, 2026, it would no longer initiate disputes over the same issues.
