PARIS: Flights from Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris and other French airports have faced disruptions as airport workers hold a strike and protests to demand salary hikes to keep up with inflation.
Friday’s labour action is the latest trouble to hit global airports over the last few weeks, as travel resurges after two years of coronavirus restrictions.
French airports have been largely spared the chaos seen recently in London, Amsterdam and some other European and US cities.
But on Friday, striking workers sought to call attention to the pain of inflation with a walkout on the first big day of France’s domestic holiday travel season. –Agencies
