Air France plans to run flight schedule despite strikes

Air France said on Sunday it planned to run its entire flight schedule on January 6-7.

The resume came despite calls by some crew unions to strike as part of ongoing nationwide protests over the government’s efforts to reform the pension system.

“On January 6 and 7, 2020, Air France plans to operate its entire flight schedule,” the airline said in a statement, which also cited discussions between the government and unions that it said had resulted in guarantees for flight crews’ future pension system, Reuters reported.
