French strike leads to reduction in Paris flights, Air Malta reroutes to Charles De Gaulle airport

As a result of this strike Air Malta has to cancel flights KM466/7 Malta/Paris Orly/Malta tomorrow. Air Malta flight KM478/9 Malta/Paris Charles De Gaulle/Malta will operate as scheduled.

Due to restricted airport resources the French Aviation authority has requested all airlines to reduce their traffic programme into Paris and Air Malta has been allowed to operate only its flight KM478/9 to Paris Charles De Gaulle.

In view of this, passengers originally booked on KM466 to Paris Orly are being offered to travel on flight KM478 to Paris Charles De Gaulle tomorrow which is scheduled to depart Malta at 1315 hours local time. Those passengers originally booked to travel Paris Orly to Malta on KM467 are being offered the opportunity to travel tomorrow on KM479 from Paris Charles De Gaulle.  The flight is expected to depart Paris Charles De Gaulle at 1700 hours arriving in Malta at 1935 hours.

“Till now, Air Malta flights to/from Lyon as well as to/from Toulouse and Marseille will operate as per schedule tomorrow.  In the eventuality of any changes in these flights, the airline will communicate these to the public at once,” the airline said.

“Air Malta would like to apologise to its passengers for any inconvenience they may encounter which are totally beyond the airline’s control and urges its clients due to travel on the above mentioned flights to contact flight enquiries at Malta International Airport on tel: 50043333 or the Call Centre on 21662211 for further information on flight arrival/departure times.”
