Thursday, October 13, fuel shortages still await France. Tourist sites already fear that their turnover from holidays in the Toussaint don’t suffer.

Will the French be able to swim in the Mediterranean or take a walk in the city of Carcassonne (Aude) during the holidays of the Toussaint ? Due to refinery strikes and fuel shortages, some have already changed their vacation plans. “Given the region, I don’t see the point of leaving, so we’re going to stay here and make tourists here“, explains a man. Another assures that he would have left but that “given the situation, it is difficult to plan“.

In Carcassonne, we are already feeling the effects of the gasoline shortage, Thursday, October 13. The medieval city has been calmer for a few days. Reservations in tourist places are at a standstill. A hotel in Saint-Laurent-du-Var (Alpes-Maritimes) recorded 25% of customer cancellations, fearing to run out of fuel.
