Delta’s Unmatched Profit Sharing Compared to Peers

Delta’s Unmatched Profit Sharing Compared to Peers
American and United have now both announced full year earnings – and Delta comes out on top for profit sharing once again. Delta believes that all employees should have a stake in the success they help make possible. That’s why it shares a much larger percentage of profits with employees than its peers – which in turn means larger payouts for each employee.
Here are a few highlights from Delta’s profit sharing history:
For 2022, Delta flight attendants will each receive 5% of their individual earnings, compared to United’s 3.36% and American’s, which we expect to be under 1% based on their published earnings and profit sharing plan.
Delta’s 2022 profit sharing pool of $563M is greater than the pool of all peer airlines combined.
Since 2015, Delta has shared $7.3B in profit sharing with its employees, while United has shared $2.6B and American $1B with their people.
In the five years leading up to COVID, Delta paid an average of 23% of pre-tax income as profit sharing, while United shared 13% and American shared 4%.
