last time i was on a swiss flight GVA to BCN, early evening. we were boarded, doors closed and then i saw the captain standing in the aisle beside me. not a good omen i thought. sure enough, french ATC had literally minutes earlier begun their strike so airspace over france was closed.
i would assume that the same would happen today.
