Unions representing Spanish airline Iberia's cabin crew will call off strikes planned for November and December after reaching a wage agreement with management, a union spokesman said Friday.
"Once the (wage) agreement has been signed the strike will be officially called off," said a spokesman from Sitcpla, one of the two unions which called for strike action.
The unions already carried out strikes in October and November and another 8 days of stoppages were planned between the end of November and the middle of December.
But, on Thursday, Iberia said it had agreed an average 4 percent salary rise in 2009 for its nearly 4,000 cabin crew.
On November 12, Iberia and British Airways said they had reached a preliminary merger agreement.
