The Spanish Government asked Parliament to extend an emergency measure that will keep the country's air traffic control under military control over Christmas.
Deputy Prime Minister Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba said the Government wanted Parliament to approve an extension until January 15.
The measure came into force on December 4 after air traffic controllers staged a wildcat strike that forced the closure of Spain's airports.
