Strikes by French air traffic controllers on Tuesday triggered mass flight cancellation for a second day at Orly airport south of Paris and could lead to disruptions at France's main Charles de Gaulle airport.
The national civil aviation agency (DGAC) said the strike over reorganisation of air traffic control would lead to the cancellation of about 60 percent of flights at Orly airport this week. The strike is due to last until Friday.
Media said between 10 and 30 percent of flights at Charles de Gaulle airport north of Paris could be cancelled on Tuesday.
Air France said it would assure all its long-haul flights and 40 percent of short or medium distance flights at Orly on Tuesday, and said its services at Charles de Gaulle would be normal.
