Postpone your trip, says Air France as the carrier predicts just 40 percent of its flights will operate normally on Wednesday, the third day of a one-week walk-out.<br /><br />The carrier admits it sees “no end to the crisis” as pilots continue their action over claims jobs will be moved overseas.<br /><br />“We recommend that our clients booked between now and September 22 postpone their trip, for free, if their plans aren’t urgent. If they prefer, they can get a credit note which they can use on Air France – KLM for up to one year,” said Catherine Jude, Air France’s Director of Operations.<br /><br />Pilots say plans to double the size of the company’s low-cost carrier Transavia will see Air France’s services reduced, leading to lay-offs.<br /><br />On Tuesday, only one in two Air France flights from Paris airports took off while other French cities saw almost all services cancelled.
