EgyptAir strike comes to an end

A strike at EgyptAir came to an end after a presidential representative promised to meet workers' demands for better working conditions and insurance. The airline resumed international flights after the announcement was made Friday evening, Ahram Online reported. The strike began Friday morning, with cabin staffers demanding better work conditions, insurance, and an increase in staff numbers. All of EgyptAir's international flights were grounded during the strike. Legal consultant Mohamed Fouad, who represented President Mohamed Morsi, met with strikers Friday afternoon, and then said EgyptAir was willing to give into the cabin crew's 'legitimate demands.' Changes at EgyptAir will be implemented following the appropriate legal procedures, Fouad was quoted as saying by the United Press International
