More than 6,000 Delta employees in Twin Cities get 14.5% raises

Delta Air Lines is increasing base pay for all ground crew and flight attendants by 14.5 percent, a move that will lift compensation for more than 6,000 of its Twin Cities employees.

The company on Wednesday announced the raise, which stands out both for its size and for appearing to be a break in the wage stagnation that persisted in the U.S. economy amid other improvements.
