French flag carrier Air France cancels more than half its short-and medium-haul flights on Friday as the country's air traffic controllers wage a strike
The carrier's move comes after the biggest air traffic controllers' union SNCTA called members out on strike.
Air France said just 45 percent of short-and medium-haul services would operate on Friday, while 90 percent of long-haul connections would go ahead. It also said it was in discussions with the Eurocontrol aviation traffic manager to propose alternative routes for airlines to avoid French airspace.
