Air traffic controllers in France are on strike for two days, causing hundreds of flights to be canceled and disrupting travel for tens of thousands of tourists.

The air traffic controllers' strike in France, launched by the Unsa-Icna union, is aimed at better working conditions and denounces staff shortages and outdated equipment. The civil aviation authority announced major disruptions at airports, with Air France adjusting its schedule and Ryanair announcing 170 canceled flights. The transport minister criticized the strike as unacceptable during the holiday season. The DGAC called for significant cuts in flight schedules to manage the situation.
