French air traffic controllers have confirmed a rescheduled strike set for mid-October, raising concerns over potential disruptions across major airports. The decision follows unsuccessful negotiations with government officials regarding work conditions and staffing shortages. Travelers are advised to prepare for possible delays and cancellations affecting both domestic and international flights, as air traffic services may operate at reduced capacity during the strike period.
