Yup, beware of striking AIR France workers this summer my friends.

My father was stuck in CDG due to workers REFUSING to refuel the plane. Result a LUCKY 3 hour delay! Whew!

Geez, I all this stuff all ends by mid-July when I'm in the South of France.
The start of July marks the beginning of summer holiday travel in France. Three million vacation seekers were expected to be on the move this weekend, French media reported.

Air France was forced to cancel 60 flights scheduled for Friday as one of the unions that represents flight attendants began a four-day strike to press for salary increases and bonuses.
