United Airlines pilots, including dozens at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport, are expected to participate in a nationwide picket on Friday afternoon.

"The United Airlines Pilots' Informational Picket" is scheduled to take place from 1-2 p.m. at the Cleveland Hopkins International Airport.

Across the country, thousands of United Airlines pilots are expected to picket, as they have failed to agree on a contract with the airline.

The Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA) is representing United Airlines pilots at 10 demonstrations nationwide. Pilots will "uniformly express their frustration in management’s failure to recognize the value pilots bring to the overall success of the airline," according to event organizers.

“Thousands of United Pilots are picketing coast-to-coast today to deliver management a message they cannot ignore; enough is enough,” said United ALPA Master Executive Council (MEC) chair Capt. Garth Thompson. “We have been stuck with an antiquated scheduling system and a contract nowhere near industry-leading standards. We want United to succeed as industry leaders, and every day that passes without an agreement is another day the best and brightest future aviators go elsewhere.”
