ClanDerby Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Transavia in to Orly then train from Paris Est to Metz. If we were flying tomorrow, it would have been cancelled. This could be a very expensive match if we can't get as we won't get refunded on trains and hotel! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalgety Bay TA Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Likewise Easyjets flight from Edin to CDG scheduled tomorrow is cancelled due to tomorrow's strike. There are talks scheduled for 31st May. If they don't sort anything then our flight on Friday 3rd will be cancelled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diane0805 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 We're flying to Brussels on the 2nd and then a Belgian train to Luxembourg on the 3rd. So hoping to get there ok. Might not get home on the 5th if all the planes are in the wrong places but that's no hardship. Always a challenge following Scotland!

GhostZapper Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Air Traffic Control strike from 2nd to 5th, Air France Pilots potentially on strike now from Wednesday, Trains and Paris metro system from Thursday, and add to that the strikes and blockades at Oil Refineries and Petrol Stations - will there actually be any public transport!

Was reading that only 10% of staff have actually went on strike/taken action - they are most likely fed up of it aswell. There was minimal disruption over the weekend with public transport Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham of Montrose Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Looks like the idea to fly to Brussels then drive to Metz has been a master stroke. Just hope everyone gets there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
