easyJet will launch three ‘rescue flights’ tomorrow, as the impact of a strike by French air traffic controllers continues to be felt. The low-cost airline cancelled 248 flights yesterday and a further 331 today, with 78 of those to and from the UK. “easyJet recognises that there a number of passengers across the network who have been affected by these cancellations and still require flights as soon as possible,” explained a statement.
