Anyone planning to travel to France from the UK has been hit with a fresh warning from the Foreign Office.
On Wednesday (March 8), the government department warned all passengers about disruption to services, and urged anyone with travel plans to contact their operators. The warning comes as unions have called for further strike action across the European country.
Demonstrations and coordinated strikes planned on Saturday, March 11, and Wednesday, March 15.

Gov.uk advice states: "Industrial action may start the evening before the strike day and run for several days. Localised or sector-specific strikes could also occur outside these dates.
"Industrial action may lead to disruption to services. Please check the latest advice with operators before travelling, avoid demonstrations and follow the advice of local authorities."
Staff are walking out in protest of a planned pension reform that would see President Emmanuel Macron raise the pension age by two years to 64. Reuters reports around 1.28m people took to the streets on Tuesday in demonstrations across the country.
While workers say it is grossly unfair, the French government insists the reform is essential to avoid the pension system running out of money.
