Ryanair cancelled over 170 flights affecting more than 30,000 passengers due to French air traffic control strikes. The cancellations impact flights to and from France and those over French airspace, including destinations like the UK, Greece, Spain, and Ireland. Ryanair's CEO, Michael O'Leary, criticized the strikes, calling on EU officials to reform air traffic control services. He expressed concerns that European families face unfair disruptions each summer holiday season. Ryanair has advocated for significant changes to the existing air traffic control framework in Europe.
More than 30,000 passengers have had their travel plans disrupted after Ryanair said it was forced to cancel more than 170 flights because of French air traffic control strikes.
Ryanair chief executive Michael O'Leary renewed calls on EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen to take urgent action to reform European Union air traffic control services in light of the disruption.
O'Leary stated that European families are unfairly affected by French air traffic controllers going on strike, leading to cancelled and delayed flights.
Ryanair has long campaigned for an overhaul of air traffic control services across Europe to prevent such disruptions.
