Unions in France are walking out in response to French President Emmanuel Macron’s labour reforms.
Ryanair called on the French Macron Government and European Commission to take immediate action to prevent the skies over Europe being closed yet again on Tuesday by French ATC unions.
Ryanair’s Kenny Jacobs said: “Enough is enough. If the French Government is serious about changing France, they should start by tackling these Air Traffic Control unions, and together with the European Commission, should take immediate action to prevent thousands of European consumers from having their travel plans disrupted by a tiny group of ATC unions going on strike once again. They cannot stand idly by as more disruption and travel misery is inflicted upon Europe’s consumers and airlines.
“All of our affected customers have been contacted and informed of their options and we advise all customers travelling on Tuesday to check the status of their flight on the Ryanair.com website before leaving for their airport. We again urge European consumers to sign the A4E online petition, Keep Europe’s Skies Open, (http://www.keepeuropesskiesopen.com/) to help protect Europe from repeated disruption by ATC unions.”
