The DGAC has asked companies to reduce their flight schedule by 20% at Paris-Charles-de-Gaulle, and 30% at Paris-Orly, Beauvais, Bordeaux, Lille, Lyon, Nantes, Marseille, Montpellier, Nice and Toulouse.
Despite the establishment of a minimum service and the preventive reduction in traffic requested, the DGAC foresees “disruptions and delays”, it said in a press release.
The administration invites passengers who can “to postpone their trip and to inquire with their airline to find out the status of their flight”.
The disturbances had already been significant in the sky during the mobilization of February 16, when the DGAC had requested similar cancellations from the companies.
Unannounced strikes by air traffic controllers also disrupted flights in early February, once morest a backdrop of mobilization once morest pension reform, although their unions did not call a strike.
