Bankrupt United Airlines reached a tentative deal on Wednesday with its flight attendants union on a new pension plan, the union said. The deal is less lucrative than the labor group's long held retirement plan that the carrier terminated during its restructuring. Members of the Association of Flight Attendants must still ratify the agreement.
