The latest strike action called by Spanish cabin crew working for low-cost airline easyJet has been called off. Walkouts were scheduled to begin today (July 29) and continue through the weekend but the dispute over pay has been settled.
Unions representing the affected easyJet staff based at Barcelona, Palma de Mallorca and Malaga have agreed a 22 per cent salary rise spread across three years. Workers will receive a four per cent base salary rise backdated from March of this year.
There will be a 13 per cent increase in 2023 and another five per cent in 2024. Contracts have also been changed to guarantee nine months of employment a year as opposed to the current eight months.
