Monday, July 16, Air France was to inaugurate its new line Paris-Perpignan. But the flight was canceled at the last moment. The reason ? The crew was "too tired" to take off.
Could this be the victory of France at the World Cup, which prevented members of a crew from the subsidiary Hop! Air France to sleep in the night from Sunday 15 to Monday 16 July? We'll never know. In any case, Monday, July 16 in the early morning, the crew of a flight Paris-Perpignan did not want to embark because he was "too tired," report our colleagues from The Independent .
The flight inaugurated a new line connecting Paris to Perpignan but the aircraft, an Embraer 190, however remained on the tarmac of Roissy Charles-de-Gaulle airport. Air France justified this cancellation by explaining that the staff planned for the trip was too tired to sail.
The plane also had to recover a hundred pbadengers on its arrival in Perpignan to bring them back to Paris. The airline then had to find a last minute solution for the pbadengers waiting for correspondence. A bus took them to Toulouse airport where they could finally take the direction of Paris.
The reason for this cancellation did not satisfy the head of development of the airport of Perpignan, Dimitri Sindres , who told The Independent : "While we fight to create lines, to satisfy the customer, Air France simply cancels a flight. When it's not the strike that nails the fleet on the ground, it's fatigue. "
