France: easyJet France pilots strike from 13 to 14 September 2026 (Sun 04:59 – Mon 23:59)
In 8 daysLast Updated:
The pilots' union SNPL has called easyJet pilots based in France to strike from 04:59 on Sunday 13 September until 23:59 on Monday 14 September 2026. Flights to and from easyJet's French bases and airports are likely to be cancelled or rescheduled on both days; the airline has not yet published a revised schedule, so passengers should watch for easyJet notifications and check their flight status before travelling.
The dispute is about chronic roster instability: pilots report schedules being changed several times a week, sometimes up to ten times for a single day before departure. After cabin crew struck on 15–16 August (98 cancellations), easyJet granted them five "untouchable" days per month and compensation for changes of more than two hours. SNPL is asking for the same protections for pilots and says management can still avert the strike by applying them.
This alert was originally created on 5 September 2026.
