“Bloquons Tout” movement, latest update.
France is set to face widespread protests, transport disruptions, and school closures tomorrow, Wednesday, September 10th, as part of the nationwide movement known as “Bloquons Tout” ("Let’s Block Everything"). Backed by several unions the protests aim to denounce working conditions, budget cuts, and what organizers describe as growing social and economic inequality.
Are morning flights from Nice still operating? Yes, some flights are still scheduled, but many are cancelled, especially later in the day. The French civil aviation authority (DGAC) has ordered a 50% cut in flights between 18:00 and midnight at Nice Airport and Corsican airports. Morning flights on Wednesday are not included in this mandatory cut, so many are still operating, but delays and last-minute cancellations are still possible.
