Air France pilots union calls for strike during Euro 2016

PARIS (Reuters) - Air France's pilot unions have called on members to strike during the first week of the Euro 2016 soccer championship in a protest over pay, although the airline's chief executive said fans could just drive or take the train.

The unions said in a joint statement they planned to strike from June 11 until June 14 and might schedule further strikes a few days later if necessary. The soccer tournament begins in Paris on June 10 and will run until July 10.
