Frankreich: Massive Flugausfälle bei Easyjet wegen Streiks

Numerous Easyjet flights in France were canceled over the weekend due to a strike by cabin crew, according to French media. More than 100 connections were reportedly struck. Numerous connections were no longer bookable on Easyjet's website on Saturday. Employees are primarily protesting against short-notice changes to their work schedules.

According to the SNPNC-FO union mentioned by the French newspaper "Le Monde," more than half of the approximately 900 cabin staff at Easyjet in France participated in the strike. Easyjet offers affected passengers a free change to another flight, the French newspaper reports. Easyjet is the second-largest airline in France in terms of passenger numbers, after Air France.

The country is one of the airline's most important markets on the European mainland. More: Airlines continue to raise ticket prices, especially three groups are affected.
