European Carriers

With the maximum age raised in France, effective November 18th, with the passage of the law by the Senate, do Air France pilots now have the legal right to continue to age 65 if they so choose, or is there some other constraint within the process that would allow the employer to still terminate their employment.

Ditto for KLM. Can individuals exercise their legal rights to go beyond 60, or is that a matter of negotiation between the carrier and the pilot association?

Do you have any knowledge of the subject at Lufthansa? Apparently, there was a legal challenge some months ago by three pilots wanting to stay beyond age 60. Has that been resolved, or is there still a dispute between the individual pilots, their Association and the employer?
