Christmas strike at EasyJet France
Cabin crew plan 48-hour walkout for December 25 and 26
EASYJET flights to and from France will be hit by a 48-hour strike by cabin crew this Christmas.
The walkout will affect routes at Paris Orly, Charles de Gaulle, Lyon, Nice and Toulouse and runs from December 25-26.
The British budget airline expects it will have to cancel up to half of French flights on Boxing Day. More details will be known by Wednesday.
