Most of these flights were to originate from or were destined for Ireland, Germany, Italy and Spain, the airline said on Twitter.
The majority of canceled flights are “flights over France and not flights to France”, lamented the CEO of the company, Michael O’Leary, for whom there is no reason that these flights should have been cancelled. “We respect the air traffic controllers’ right to strike, but if they go on strike, they must cancel their national flights”, and not the flights which go from Ireland to Italy, from Poland to Portugal or from Spain to Germany, continues the CEO for whom “the French want to give priority to their domestic flights and remove all overflights”.
The CEO of Ryanair also regrets the “inaction” of the European Commission and recalls that the airline has submitted a petition, signed by more than 1.1 million passengers, calling on the European Commission to “protect overflights” and ” the freedom of movement of European citizens during the repeated strikes by air traffic controllers”.
