Strike to cost Air France about 90 million euros: CEO

A week-long strike by cabin crew at Air France will have cost the airline about 90 millions euros, Air France CEO Frederic Cagey said on France Info radio on Tuesday.

Two of the airline’s cabin crew unions called the strike, which started on Wednesday after talks on renewing a collective labour agreement broke down.

Parent group Air France-KLM said last week that a strike by pilots in June had cost it around 40 million euros.

The airline said on Monday that about 10 percent of its flights would be cancelled on Tuesday, the last day of the strike, but no international long-haul flights would be cancelled.
