Paris, France (AHN) – French aviation workers continued their strike for a third consecutive day Wednesday, forcing carrier Air France to cancel 30 percent of its domestic flights and 40 percent of long-haul flights.

The strike has not only affected Paris’ Charles de Gaulle airport and regional airports but also thousands of passengers.

Aviation workers organized the four-day strike in protest of a proposed law that would require them to individually give at least 48 hours notice before they go on strike.

The French Lower House approved the bill last month and is in the Senate for approval.
