Air France pilots on strike

Striking Air France pilots attend a demonstration near the National Assembly in Paris during their second week strike September 23, 2014. The labour dispute with French pilots over the launch of Air France-KLM's low-cost airline Transavia in Europe could force management to abandon it, the company's chief executive Alexandre de Juniac said on Tuesday. Speaking as a strike costing up to 20 million euros($25.7 million) daily entered its ninth day despite his promise to suspend the project to the end of the year, de Juniac said he was deeply reluctant to abandon a launch he sees as crucial to fight competition from other low-cost players, but that he might have to. The pilots wear reinterpreted sailor shirt by Armor Lux textile company and the slogan reads "pilots on strike, united for our future". [Photo/Agencies]
