On June 26, 2026, air traffic control strikes expanded to include France alongside Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Spain, and Italy. This coordinated industrial action has resulted in significant disruptions to flight operations across several key European hubs.

Among the affected airports are Paris Charles de Gaulle in France, Frankfurt Airport in Germany, London Heathrow in the UK, and Amsterdam Schiphol in the Netherlands. Thousands of flights have experienced delays or cancellations throughout the day as a result of these strikes, causing widespread inconvenience for travelers passing through these major airports.
