Flag carrier TAP Portugal has come to terms for now with crew who were scheduled to go on strike for a week, starting on January 25. Around two-thirds of the workers involved voted in favour of a temporary deal covering pay and working conditions, according to the National Union of Civil Aviation Flight Personnel (SNPVAC).

The carrier said it had been “fully engaged in the negotiations” and would “maintain this openness and dialogue with all the structures representing the workers”, according to
