French Air Traffic Controller Strike

French ATCs have gone on strike today :evil:. The reports I am finding on the web are unclear about whether it is for 4 or 5 days. Given that I am due to travel out on Saturday, this is pretty critical :x

I really do not want to be sitting around for ever on Saturday instead of getting to resort (Flaine)on time.

Anybody know any more about this? Can I expect this to disrupt flights to Geneva? Any hope of settlement in the meantime?

Wanderer, what a bummer. I'd not heard about this, however a good site for info is:

It's where pilots/cabin crew and passengers let off steam :D

Typical French.
If its not blockading a port, or burning cars somewhere, its an ATC strike. Or closing the lost luggage part of Grenoble airport :evil:

I hope this sorts itself out by the weekend, I'm flying to Toulouse on Sunday!
