Low cost airline Ryanair has cancelled more than 170 flights because of French air traffic control strikes, affecting more than 30,000 passengers. The Irish carrier said the cancellations on Thursday and Friday impact flights to and from France, but will also affect French overflights.
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 (ATC) services in light of the disruption.
