Striking Air France pilots have rejected an offer by the airline aimed at resolving the dispute. Their SNPL union said a proposed suspension of plans to develop the airline's budget carrier, Transavia, was a "smokescreen" that offered no more guarantees than previous offers. Air France boss Alexandre de Juniac had said the planned expansion would be frozen until the end of the year. The eight-day-old strike is the airline's longest since 1998. It has been costing the firm 15m euros (£11.8m; $19.3m) a day.
