The General Directorate of Civil Aviation asked airlines on Friday to preventively cancel 70% of flights at Paris-Orly on Saturday, due to the call for a strike by one of the main air traffic controllers’ unions.
“Air operators must reduce their commercial flight schedule for the day of May 25, 2024 from 4:00 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. GMT by 70% (…) at Paris-Orly airport”, according to a “notice for air missions” (NOTAM) published by the DGAC.
