The Australian airline Qantas has failed to reach an agreement in a long running industrial dispute with pilots and ground staff.
The airline will now be forced to go to arbitration in a bid to end over six months of disruption.
A series of strikes over guarantees on working conditions, wages, job security and moving jobs to Asia hit the carrier.
