French air traffic control strike called off
French air traffic controllers have ended their industrial action four days early.
The strike, which started on Tuesday, was due to last for six days but Ryanair said it had been advised it was called off at midnight on Wednesday.
The airline, which has been forced to cancel thousands of flights over the past couple of days, said it will operate a normal schedule today.
EasyJet said it was expecting "a fairly normal operating day" today.
It added: "The level of disruption caused over the last two days is likely to have some knock on effect throughout today, so regrettably we could still see a number of delays while we fully recover, but we are working hard to minimise any impact to our customers."
However, a two-hour strike by Belgian air traffic controllers, brought further misery to UK air travellers from 17:00 yesterday.
Ryanair said that delays on Wednesday were up to four hours.
