Air traffic control strike France: huge impact on flights

Many flights have been affected after the air traffic control strike that started yesterday evening and will continue until the morning of Wednesday 11 October.

Eurocontrol shared an image on their website, clearly showing delays of over 45 minutes (red) at and above France. The real impact will be much worse with cancellations (already hundreds of flights have been cancelled), passengers with missed connections and delayed flights throughout the day.
