The threat of a pay dispute involving Virgin Atlantic cabin crew eased today after union officials agreed to recommend a new pay deal.
Unite said the three-year deal, of 4.8% in year one and the rate of inflation in years two and three, was “much improved” on a previous offer.
National Officer Brian Boyd said: “Unite now believes that we have reached a point where the important part played by cabin crew in the continued success of Virgin Atlantic has been recognised.”
