France hit again by ATC strike
French air traffic controllers have called another strike for Thursday, June 23, which is expected to last for 35 hours and will see the cancellation and delay of more than 200 flights, A4E said. Over the next 4 weeks, another 8 strikes have been announced in Italy and Portugal, and more than 1,000 flights are at risk of being canceled, A4E said. “European travellers face a summer of chaos, disruption and ruined holidays due to ATC strikes. Just this week, 9 strike days have been confirmed for June and July and they surely won’t be the last ... There is nothing stopping further ATC strikes—we need urgent action to stop these controllers from infringing on people’s rights and destroying their holiday plans,” A4E MD Thomas Reynaert said. <br/>
