French air traffic control (ATC) strikes are disrupting several flights from Ireland due to cancellations and overflight restrictions. Affected airlines include Ryanair and Aer Lingus, with Dublin Airport reporting multiple flight cancellations. Passengers flying to or over mainland Europe are advised to check with airlines for updates. The strike is attributed to systemic issues within ATC services, including understaffing and outdated equipment, amid the busy summer travel season. EU Regulation 261/2014 mandates re-routing options or refunds for affected passengers.
"In addition to flights to/from France being cancelled, this strike will also affect all French overflights."
"Most disrupted passengers are not even flying to/from France, but over French airspace to destinations like the UK, Greece and Spain."
