Ryanair announced that a strike impacting French air traffic controllers is leading to flight cancellations, including routes to and from France as well as overflights to countries like the UK, Greece, and Spain. Notable cancellations from Dublin Airport involve flights to Nice, Biarritz, Paris, and Murcia. Aer Lingus stated there are limited cancellations, with the possibility of further disruptions if the strike persists. Under EU Regulation 261/2014, affected passengers are entitled to re-routing or refunds, emphasizing the need for urgent reform of EU air traffic control services to mitigate such impacts.
In addition to flights to/from France being cancelled, this strike will also affect all French overflights, meaning disruptions for passengers flying to the UK, Greece, and Spain.
Most disrupted passengers are not even flying to/from France, but are overflying French airspace. Cancellations include flights from Dublin to Nice, Biarritz, Paris, and Murcia.
Aer Lingus announced limited flight cancellations to/from Paris and Nice, warning of potential further cancellations if industrial action continues on July 4.
Ryanair called on the EU Commission President, Ursula von der Leyen, to urgently reform EU ATC services to prevent future disruptions caused by strikes.
