Brits heading to France when England's school holidays start are being warned to expect delays.
The school year ends in England on Friday July 22, sparking the start of six weeks of holiday and the peak travel period for families. Many will be packing their cars up, heading down to Kent and boarding ferries to France for holidays on the Continent, as well as flying and taking trains or using the Channel Tunnel's Eurotunnel.
The Foreign and Commonwealth Office says to expect delays due to increased travel and further disruption due to industrial action, including airline strikes later in July. EasyJet and Ryanair are among the airlines whose staff plan to strike. Local disputes in the transport sector are also possible.
