EasyJet France issues month‑long strike notice that could disrupt August flights

Three French flight‑crew unions – SNPNC‑FO, UNAC‑CFE‑CGC and UNPNC‑CFDT – have filed a 27‑day strike pre‑notice covering 7 August to 2 September 2026 for EasyJet France’s cabin crew. The notice is deliberately open‑ended; unions say only “key dates” will be announced at least 48 hours in advance, meaning specific flight cancellations could occur at short notice.

The strike window falls during the peak summer travel period, potentially affecting flights from major French bases such as Paris‑Orly, Nice, Lyon, Toulouse and Nantes. EasyJet has expressed disappointment, claiming it has offered several measures to address crew concerns and has scheduled negotiations for September, while urging the unions to withdraw the pre‑notice.
