Hello,


Yes, indeed, what a read about the storm is that all parisian airports (CDG, ORY and LBG) will be closed from 20h00 LT on monday till tuesday 10h00 LT.
It makes a lot of cancellations for the airlines.
Pax are requested to stay home ...

Any chance for diversions out of CDG for long haul planes that where already in flight before the decision to close those airports ?

Paris-airports are open again, but Air France expects many and/or long delays.
