The Foreign Office has warned holidaymakers heading to Paris and other French cities that significant disruption may be expected following continued strike action. The travel warning also says that protests, carried out by several unions in the country, may also turn violent.
The warning comes ahead of another day of cross-sector strike action on Thursday (March 23) which looks likely to cause severe disruption to travel. The industrial action may last for several days before and after.
Road and train travel are expected to face the biggest disruptions. Holidaymakers heading to the country, in particular the capital, are advised to monitor the media, check the latest advice with travel operators before travelling, avoid demonstrations and follow the advice of the local authorities.
