Our neighbours got caught up in the strife in Paris a couple of weeks ago and found it very, very scary and got confined to their hotel for a day or two. The sale of fireworks pre Bastille day has been banned so I imagine that the authorities are fearful of it all kicking off again. Also check out the dates of the French Air Traffic Controllers strike. I think they have one scheduled for 15 July. Lots of flights are being cancelled this summer.

I have not seen any notice about any ATC strike in July. The last strike was in June.
The CGT union says they are striking every day in July and August, at least warn that, not sure about that, but that's not ATC. I did see a news item about how in general, they agreed to stop striking until next Fall (from their meeting on 6/13 I think it was, overall striking). That is garbage collectors but I think they said they were striking forever last April, anyway.

Reuters didn't say anything about ATC striking in France in July as far as I know, they just said they had striked in early June and some other countries were having strike problems. IN fact, they said Ryanair pilots in Belgium were striking on July 15.
