Thanks to the Games, we will transform our city in depth, like a ring road that will become a green belt:

It will be very difficult to travel to France this Christmas weekend. And it was not for nothing that SNCF employees submitted a notice of strike, which starts this Friday and runs for the next few days. That will greatly complicate the lives of the French, many of whom will not be able to celebrate Christmas with their families. And it is not for nothing that only three out of five trains are scheduled to run on December 24 and 25, and tens of thousands of tickets have been canceled. Thus creating panic among travelers while the rest TGV in service, almost all are full. But what solutions remain for those who do not have a car? Because the rental companies are also taking it by storm and setting high prices.

Car sharing, an amazing solution?
Therefore, carpooling remains one of the most effective alternatives. And if nothing else is reported, there is no doubt that the platforms should see a sharp increase in registrations over the weekend. To tell the truth, this is not very surprising, because this practice has already enjoyed increasing success in recent years. In question, the train is on strike, and platforms such as BlaBlaCar these periods often see a surge in bookings. So it may still be the case at Christmas and it will be better to be patient and wait to find a free car.

New help
A solution against strikes, car sharing will soon be encouraged by the government, which plans to offer €100 compensation to all new registrants on the platforms. A small allowance to be paid within the next year. But there is an alternative solution, which is none other than peer-to-peer car rental. Feel free to head over to specialty sites like OuiCar to find what you’re looking for to be able to join your family for the holidays!
