Agreement between management and CGT

The notice which ran from Friday to Sunday "was lifted following the signing of an agreement" between management and the CGT, ADP told AFP, an agreement confirmed by the trade union organization.

On the other hand, "negotiations are continuing" with the representatives of other personnel who have filed a separate notice for the same period, according to the company.

The Paris-CDG firefighters had been on strike since last Thursday, forcing the General Directorate of Civil Aviation (DGAC) to request preventive flight cancellations: part of the runways had to be closed for safety.

Employees of Aéroports de Paris (ADP), a group controlled in the majority by the State, and subcontractors had joined this inter-union movement, according to management.

Cancellations affected one in five flights between 7:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. on Saturday July 2 departing from or arriving at Roissy, compared to one flight in six on Thursday June 30 and Friday July 1.

That is 150 flights deleted out of 1,300, according to a spokesperson for Groupe ADP.

Salary negotiations were unsuccessful on Friday July 1.
