EasyJet cancels 100 flights in France
EasyJet, the British low-cost airline, announced the cancellation of approximately 100 flights from French airports over the weekend due to a strike by cabin crew protesting frequent schedule changes. About half of the roughly 900 employees in France participated. The employees are demanding stability in their work hours, as their schedules change suddenly, making it difficult to organize their personal lives. These changes have caused disruptions and delays to flights, with warnings of further strikes between August 7 and September 2 if their demands are not met. The company offered bonuses for working during strike days but was criticized for considering such actions illegal. France was a major market for EasyJet, which was recently acquired by the American investment firm Apollo in a $7.7 billion deal.
