Airplane-maker Boeing has reached a tentative agreement with striking union members to end a lengthy labour dispute which will come as a relief to numerous airlines around the world, including Ryanair, whose orders have been delayed.

The company’s latest proposal would boost wages by 38% over four years and give workers a $12,000 (€11,042) signing bonus if it’s approved, the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) said in a statement.
