Well they are asking people to rebook. Of course if they do start bumping - the expectation will be that people will get compensation as per Regulation 261. (which does have an opt-out due to 'strikes')
If an airline cancels a flight on this day - this should not be counted against it in the 'use-it, or lose-it slot rule.
