Air France-KLM, a French-Dutch airline company, will lay off at least 2,500 people to reduce costs, according to a French news outlet.
France24 cites Didier Fauverte, an Air France trade union leader, who said management told them that between 2,500 and 2,600 jobs will be cut.
The company lost $215 million in the second quarter, it said last week, after losing about a $1 billion last year.
The new round of layoffs, which an Air France spokesman refused to confirm, are expected to happen in early 2014.
