CANBERRA, Australia ? Australia's air safety authority has cleared Qantas Airways to resume flying after it grounded its entire fleet amid a bitter labor dispute.
Civil Aviation Safety Authority spokesman Peter Gibson said Monday that the agency has given the Australian airline the OK to return to the air.
Qantas CEO Alan Joyce said the first of the grounded aircraft is expected to fly later Monday afternoon.
The world's 10th-largest airline grounded its entire fleet on Saturday following weeks of strikes by its workers. The move stranded thousands of passengers across the world and prompted the government to order an emergency court hearing.
An arbitration court on Sunday ordered an end to the strikes and canceled a staff lockout.
