Iberia pilots end strike

MADRID, July 13 (UPI) -- Spanish airline Iberia said Thursday a pilots' strike that grounded more than 200 flights per day has ended.

The carrier said that about 60 flights were expected to resume Thursday and the remainder would be resumed by Friday, the Guardian reported.

The job action began Monday as pilots worried that the airline's October launch of a low-cost airline, Catair, would result in lower wages and job losses.

The pilots' concerns were apparently assuaged.
