PARIS, June 9, 2016
Air France said on Thursday that 20-30 per cent of its flights would be canceled due to a pilots strike, which is set to start the day after the Euro 2016 soccer tournament kicks off in France.
Chief executive officer Frederic Gagey said he anticipated a similar number of flight cancellations for the remainder of the four-day walkout over pay curbs. - Reuters
