Ryanair and Aer Lingus have been forced to cancel flights to and from France tomorrow, due to industrial action by French Air Traffic Controllers.
This latest strike, taking place on June 28th, is the 12th day of action in 13 weeks.
Earlier Ryanair announced the cancellation of 166 flights, including 12 in and out of Dublin Airport.
The airline says 30,000 of their customers will have their flights cancelled, and over 100,000 will suffer severe delays.
Ryanair's Kenny Jacobs said: "The frequency of these strikes, right in the middle of the holiday season only serves to underline how urgent action is required to help reduce the impact of these strikes."
The company is once again calling on customers to sign its 'Keep Europe's Skies Open' petition which it will present to the European Commission when it accrues a million signatures.
