[Mis à jour le 6 juillet 2022 à 09h49] Will the ongoing strike movement among Aéroports de Paris (ADP) staff once again have an impact on flights operated to and from Paris airports this weekend of Saturday July 9 and Sunday July 10? July ? It is possible since the general secretary of the group’s CGT, Daniel Bertone, confirmed to AFP the filing of new strike notices for this coming weekend in July.
Already last weekend, from Friday July 1 to Sunday July 3, a strike movement among the personnel of Aéroports de Paris (ADP) disrupted air traffic and led to flight delays and cancellations. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation, the DGAC, had asked airlines to cancel one flight in six, or around 17% of the flights scheduled at Orly and Roissy Charles de Gaulle on Friday. Over the whole weekend, 10% to 15% of the flights had not been operated. If you have to take a flight or land in Paris this weekend of July 9 and 10, watch your mailboxes and text messages! Airlines must prevent cancellations following this strike action.
Which flights canceled at Air France on Saturday July 9?
It is still too early to have detailed forecasts for the weekend of July 9 and 10. ADP should communicate by the end of the week and allow the Direction Générale de l’Aviation Civile, the DGAC, to transmit its recommended program of flights to the airlines. At Air France, during previous weekends, all long-haul flights were provided, like “90% of other flights”.

How long will the strike at Paris airports last?
A first strike movement was planned for the period from June 30 to July 3, 2022 according to the forecasts available on the Air France website. But the unions warn of a renewable strike. “As long as our demands are not satisfied, we will continue the strike”, specifies Fabrice Criquet, secretary general of FO ADP to Parisian. Among the demands are requests for salary increases. A new strike notice has thus been filed for the period from July 9 to 10, 2022.
