Striking Boeing machinists have ended their nearly two-month walkout, voting to accept a four-year deal that locks in historic gains in wages and benefits that are substantially higher than the company offered before the strike began.

The victory for the union — which secured 38 percent raises over four years and $12,000 bonuses for approving the pact — also puts Boeing’s new chief executive, Kelly Ortberg, in a better position to begin pivoting the company away from a cascade of missteps and bad news this year that damaged its reputation and deepened its financial woes.

Leaders of the 33,000-member International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers Districts 751 and W24 hailed the agreement, which also includes a guarantee that Boeing’s next new airplane will be built in the Seattle area. More than 26,000 union members voted Monday, with 59 percent voting to accept the deal, union district president Jon Holden said at the vote announcement in Seattle. His announcement was met with some cheers and some loud boos in the hall.
