Urgent holiday warning as huge strike at major Brit family destination sparks cancellations and travel chaos

OVER 1,000 workers at a popular family destination for Brits took part in workers strikes on Tuesday – sparking swirling fears of cancellations and travel chaos. More workers are likely to join trade unionists on Saturday for another day of protests.

As a result of the industrial action, the French Confédération Générale du Travail (CGT) claimed several shows and attractions at the park were experiencing delays or disruptions. It comes after a performance of Disney Stars on Parade at Disneyland Paris was cancelled at the last minute a few weeks ago. Workers rejected a preliminary offer of a 125 euro (£108) bonus ahead of pay talks scheduled to take place next month – arguing that the figure doesn’t account for soaring inflation. In response, Sylvain Cayard – a CGT trade unionist at Disneyland Paris – bemoaned that “no one has seen this 9 per cent rise”. And those striking are set to go on walk out again on Saturday – a move that could heap further misery on visitors to the park – many of whom visit from abroad. Cayard told FranceInfo: “This is money that was already supposed to be given to us, but which is being given to us a little earlier. “It is money we would have received anyway.” The striking employees work in various sectors of the park, including entertainment, maintenance and security.
