“Hundreds of British air passengers have been left stranded after a French air traffic control strike caused five times as many flight cancellations as predicted. Airlines said they expected further cancellations on Wednesday and warned of potentially worse delays to all flights crossing French airspace. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) strongly condemned the strike action, saying it targeted holidaymakers at the start of the busy summer season. Members of the two biggest air traffic controllers’ unions in France originally voted for a six-day strike from Tuesday in protest at budget cuts. However, one of the unions decided to drop strike action.”
