Flight disruption to rise as strike continues

Updated 16 Sep 2014 @ 09:30
Air France has warned that disruption will get worse as a week-long strike by its pilots continues.

More that 60% of its flights are likely to be cancelled today as a result of the strike, which began yesterday.

The pilots are protesting against a transfer of jobs by the airline to a low-cost European carrier.

Air France is urging passengers around the world to change or postpone travel.

Passengers who have booked a flight between September 15 and 22 September can delay their trip; change their ticket free of charge; or claim a refund.

Travellers due to fly with the airline are advised to check the status of their flights before heading to the airport.
