It's always something...

Bonjour tout le monde,
I am supposed to leave on Thursday for France and Italy.  Naturally, there is a scheduled air traffic strike that is starting in France tomorrow (or maybe already, since they are 9 hours ahead).  Fortunately, the strike affects more flights within Europe, and not intercontinental ones.  But I will call again tomorrow; will keep you posted.  I know that you're all on the edge of your seats :)
This isn't the first time I've had transit problems and for the most part, all has gone well.  The last time we were in Barcelona flying home.  Part of my group had a different itinerary and flew from Barcelona to Frankfurt and of course their flights were cancelled.  However, they were completely rerouted from Barcelona to NYC and then home to LAX, and that was so much better than their original itinerary.  Small favors!
Keep your fingers crossed!!!
