Air France Drops 'Plan B' Restructuring

January 15, 2016

Air France is reported to have dropped its "plan B" restructuring of job losses that triggered clashes with staff last year.

In new plans outlined to the airline's works council, Air France targeted growth in its long-haul network from 2017, Reuters news agency reported.

The measures are conditional on greater productivity efforts from pilots and cabin crew.

Net investments would exceed EUR€1 billion by 2020.

The airline said last week it would post a 2015 operating profit for the first time since 2008.
