<p>The 255 pilots flying for Mexican regional airline Aerolitoral ended a two-day strike on December 2 after agreeing to a 5.5-percent salary increase.

Based at Monterrey Airport in the northern Mexican city of Apodaca, Aerolitoral flies a fleet of Saab 340s and Fairchild Metros to 33 Mexican destinations and six Southeastern U.S. cities under a code-share deal with AeroMexico. Government-controlled Cintra, which also owns AeroMexico and Mexicana, hopes to privatize all three airlines this year.</p>
