The firefighters, maintenance and support staff voted in favour of a new contract on Monday, ending a 10-month strike.
The union says the deal includes a 40 per cent weighted average wage increase over seven years.
The St. John's International Airport Authority says the settlement balances the interests of the workers and the airport's responsibility to manage its future.
