Air France Strike 14th-17th November

[thelittlemermaid83]

tomorrow -

DH has just come back to the room - the hotel reception have been very helpful and have phoned air France and been told the flight we are meant to be on is not cancelled and we are still on it although all the websites say it is cancelled. They have advised we ring again at 9.00am tomorrow morning so we need to wait and see whats happening.

DLH and cocktails are calling

Just to let you know we have just arrived home.
The flight we should have been getting this evening was cancelled but we still had no confirmation about this from AirFrance - they wouldnt confirm it on the phone -so fortunately (because we couldnt get info from Air France over the phone) we decided to head to the airport early afternoon to try to get on an earlier one.
We got to check in desk at 2.50 and were old we could get on the 3.45 which was boarding at 3.10 so it was a mad dash through passport control and then we were whisked to a separate security check queue.

Its all been very stressful and not knowing was the worst. We have actually arrived home to EMails from Air France sent at 1.00 Saturday morning telling us the flight was canceled yet when we were speaking to them on the phone yesterday they were saying it wasnt.

So no thanks to Air France but a big thank you to Kyriad hotel and City Hall for spending ages yesterday and this morning trying to get it all sorted and also to everyone on here for help and goodwishes

Glad you got home safely, shame it spoilt the end of the holiday though.

It spoiled today a bit but we arrived earlier on Friday so had the afternoon there which we shouldnt have and the park was so much quieter on Friday so we're trying not to think of it as having spoiled it too much

so glad your home safe and sound... am feeling very nervous strike will continue! lets hope not!

Just thought Id let you all know the latest on this

DH sent an Email to Air France yesterday about the hassle we had with this - mainly being told by the helpline that the flight wasnt cancelled although the website said it was.

Anyhow we received an Email back today with 3 vouchers for flights worth £215 each to be taken within the next 12 mths.

I feel another trip coming on

Am I right that that's £645 compensation? Wow!!!!!!!!! I wish our flight would get cancelled/delayed...only don't think Easyjet would be as generous. On a more serious note though I am glad that it didn't ruin your holiday
