Decryption – From the first days of the summer vacation, hundreds of thousands of travelers experienced a black scenario. The French air traffic control strike, pointed out by companies, is not the only cause.

From the first days of the summer vacation, hundreds of thousands of travelers experienced a black scenario. A new strike by French air controllers has derailed departures at major airports in the country for two days.
