Traditionally during the holidays, many popular European countries cover transport chaos because people travel these days more than usual. The situation worsens even more if local transporters decide to strike, demanding improvement of working conditions.
Thus, in France, from May 5 to May 11, 2025, a strike of staff of the National Railway Company SNCF is planned, Le Figaro writes.
Initially, controllers announced the protest plans, but later colleagues from other services joined them.
All this is jeopardizing the festive plans of travelers, as the SNCF operator has already announced that traffic schedules are now published only 48 hours before departure.
“I have ended the trains, now I will ride a car. At least, so I count only on myself,” 41-year-old Marie complained, who planned a trip from Paris to Nice and back from May 8 to May 11.
In addition, having faced with such inorganization, some people just decided to stay at home.
“We will spend a weekend at home, and it is also very nice,” said a 59-year-old Serge, who does not want to risk more, tired of his disruptions in SNCF.
Meanwhile, on May 2, the Finnish National Carrier Finnair faced with the abolition of approximately 140 flights due to a strike of staff – this can touch more than 12,000 travelers across Europe, The Independent reports.
It is also known that the personnel of the airline are planning a similar action for May 5.
