Air France management and unions announced Friday that they had reached a deal aimed at ending months of strikes that set the airline back hundreds of millions of euros.

Five unions representing 76.4 per cent of the personnel accepted management's offer of a four-per cent pay rise to be spread over 2018 and 2019, the two sides announced.

The main pilots' union, which is holding out for a separate deal, did not sign the accord but Air France said that it was nonetheless "considered valid and will be implemented."
