French ATC strike impact on flighs departing BCN & MAD
We have some flights booked for 8 April from Barcelona to Helsinki (on Vueling) and from Madrid to Amsterdam (on Iberia).
What are the chances of these flights being canceled or significantly delayed due to the French ATC strike?

Any time there is a general ATC strike in France, lots of flights between Spain and the rest of Europeare affected (because they have to fly over France). They either get cancelled or take a longer route around France.
