Good news for business travellers to and through Spain: the strike by Spain's main pilots' union Sepla against the consequences of the launch of the low-cost carrier Iberia Express is coming to an end. After a twelve-day strike in December 2011, this industrial action, which began on 9 April and is due to last until 20 July, has led to the cancellation of almost a third of flights on Mondays and Fridays each week since the strike began.
