More than 200 Ryanair flights will be cancelled on Monday, the airline has announced today.
In a video address on Twitter, Ryanair chief Micheal O'Leary blamed the last moment cancellations on Air Traffic Control strikes in France. As a result, 220 flights will be cancelled on Monday, affecting 40,000 passengers.
Mr O'Leary apologised to the customers and said the EU Commission must require the protection of overflights from France. He added: "We're doing everything we can to re-accommodate you. You would have received email notifications from us and we're doing our best to get you back as quickly as we can despite this unacceptable 51st day of French ATC strikes this year."
