France: Paris air traffic controllers strike

Staff held a one-day strike on Saturday in protest at plans to force workers to change sites and the planned rationalisation of the network.

Members of the CFDT and CGT unions were involved.

At Orly airport 50% of flights were cancelled with many more suffering significant delays, at Charles De Gaulle airport where the two unions are in the minority some 20% of flights were cancelled with others delayed.
