<p>The Air Canada strike has ended after flight attendants reached a tentative agreement with the airline, both parties said early Tuesday.</p>

<p>"The Strike has ended," the Canadian Union of Public Employees said in a Facebook post, advising its membership to "fully cooperate with resumption of operations."</p>

<p>Air Canada said it would gradually restart operations Tuesday, but that a return to "full restoration may require a week or more."</p>

<p>"The suspension of our service is extremely difficult for our customers," Michael Rousseau, President and Chief Executive Officer of Air Canada, said in a statement. "We deeply regret and apologize for the impact on them of this labour disruption."</p>

<p>More than 10,000 flight attendants walked off the job early Saturday over pay and scheduling disputes.</p>

<p>The Canadian Industrial Relations Board directed Air Canada and Air Canada Rouge flight attendants to "resume their duties" by 2 p.m. ET Sunday after Jobs Minister Patty Hajdu imposed binding arbitration and extended the existing contract until a new agreement is reached.</p>

<p>But the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) called the order "blatantly unconstitutional" and said its members would remain on strike.</p>

<p>In a statement, union secretary and treasurer Candace Rennick said the government's order was "a disgraceful misuse of power that reeks of systemic bias and corporate favoritism."</p>

<p>The airline estimated Monday that 500,000 customers' flights had been canceled because of the strike.</p>
