Operations of Air France, hit by a four-day strike, will be back to normal Tuesday, the airline said in a statement Monday.

"The strike must be ended at midnight Monday," the statement said.

Air France employees began their strike early Friday in protest against proposals to raise the retirement age of flight crew.

The airline said it expected to run 77 percent of its long-haul flights as the strike entered its fourth day Monday.

Half the short and medium-haul flights, as well as 90 percent of its regional partner airlines' flights, have been back in service since early Monday, it said.

Apologizing to passengers for the inconvenience, Air France said operations will be back to normal Tuesday, with 100 percent long-haul flights and 95 percent short and medium-haul flights taking off on schedule from Paris, according to the statement.
