Airbnb continues to broaden its offering in France.

The platform now provides three new services directly from its app: luggage storage, car rental, and private airport transfers. The stated aim is to simplify the organization of the stay, going beyond merely booking accommodation.

With these new features, Airbnb seeks to address several logistical constraints that travelers may encounter before, during or after their stay.

The platform relies on three specialized partners for this: Bounce for luggage storage, CarTrawler for car rental and Welcome Pickups for airport transfers.

According to a study conducted by Airbnb with Focaldata, 53 % of travelers report having needed a luggage storage service in the past twelve months. In France, 96 % of travelers who have already used this type of service consider it very useful.


A luggage storage service offered in several French destinations

Airbnb now allows you to book a luggage storage directly from its app, thanks to its partnership with Bounce.

The service grants access to more than 24,600 drop-off points spread across more than 800 cities worldwide, representing a 350 % increase since its official launch in May.

In France, the offer is notably available in the Alpes-Maritimes, the Aude, the Calvados, Cannes, Côte-d’Or, Finistère, Haut-Rhin, Hendaye, Lille, Montpellier, Nancy and Metz, Nantes, Pyrénées-Atlantiques and Pyrénées-Orientales, as well as Reims and the Sarthe.

Travelers can reserve a space for a few hours or several days to drop off their luggage before arriving at their accommodations or after departure. For eligible bookings, an automatic 15 % discount is applied.


Car rental integrated into the app

Another novelty: car rental. Airbnb has partnered with CarTrawler to enable travelers to compare and book a vehicle directly from the platform, anywhere in France.

According to the study conducted by Focaldata for Airbnb, 84 % of travelers find the ability to book a rental car alongside their lodging to be useful. This share reaches 44 % for French travelers who rate this option as “very useful.”

On their first eligible booking, users can receive an Airbnb credit equal to 20 %, usable later for certain stays, experiences, or services offered on the platform. Discounts up to 20 % are also available with some rental partners.


Private transfers from several airports

Airbnb completes its offering with private transfers from airports, in partnership with Welcome Pickups. The service allows you to book your trip ahead of time. The ride is confirmed in advance and a driver is arranged upon the traveler’s arrival.

In France, this feature is currently available in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques, as well as Lille, Montpellier, Nantes, Rennes, and Strasbourg. Depending on the destination, discounts of up to 20 % may be applied.

Tourisme Montréal Launches Its ‘Next Season in Montreal’ Campaign in France

by

TAP Air Portugal


To boost tourist traffic during the cold season, Tourism Montréal engages the French market with a creative concept that pits the “Team Chill” (relax) against the “Team Thrill” (sensation).

This initiative, rolled out internationally to priority North American and European markets, aims to deconstruct the image of a restrictive winter and turn it into a compelling urban attraction argument for French travelers.

The organization thus seeks to highlight the contrasts of the metropolis through 30-second videos and short formats broadcast on digital and streaming platforms, inviting visitors to become active participants in their stay.


A reality-TV-inspired communication strategy

In continuation of its summer setup, the campaign borrows from the mechanics of reality TV shows, such as confessions, competition, and team-based rivalries, to theme the travel itineraries.

On the relaxation side, the promotion highlights local gastronomy, museums, urban spas, and neighborhood spots under the snow.

On the thrill side, the emphasis is on outdoor activities, winter festival programming, outdoor art installations, and nightlife.

The objective is not to create a true clash, but to illustrate the complementarity of experiences accessible within a single day in the city.


A media plan targeted at Île-de-France and the Lyon region through December

The campaign in France runs from September 2 to the end of December 2026, with priority targeting of the Île-de-France and Lyon catchment areas.

The media buy relies on high-audience outlets and digital channels to reach urban audiences seeking cultural, gastronomic, and exotic getaways.

By reaffirming that the metropolis “never hibernates,” Tourism Montréal aims to consolidate visitor flows across all four seasons and maintain visibility in the French market throughout the autumn-winter period.

José Antonio Benedicto Iruiñ Appointed Spain’s Tourism Advisor in France

TAP Air Portugal


The Spanish Tourism Office in Paris is adjusting its leadership with the appointment of José Antonio Benedicto Iruiñ.

Former Advisor on Education Abroad across several strategic markets (the United Kingdom, the United States, China, Poland), he succeeds María José Gómez Gómez.

This leadership change sits within the continuity of efforts aimed at maintaining close ties with the French tourism network. “His international experience, gained in several strategic markets (…) constitutes a major asset for this new responsibility,” states the official body, as Spain remains the top foreign destination choice for French travelers.

With experience in the Spanish high administration and an international career in London, New York, Beijing and Warsaw, his mission will be to consolidate Spain’s position as the leading tourist destination for the French and to strengthen partnerships with institutional and professional players in the sector.


Maintaining institutional and professional collaborations between France and Spain

In the framework of his new responsibilities at the Paris representation, José Antonio Benedicto Iruiñ now oversees all promotional and diplomatic tourism actions of the organization.

His main mission is to anchor the image of a diverse and sustainable Spain by highlighting alternative offers such as heritage, artisanal crafts, rural tourism, and natural spaces, in order to encourage rediscovery of the territory.

The new director must also ensure that Spain remains the leading international destination for French travelers, while adapting communication levers to the market’s new expectations regarding digitalization, decarbonization, and the desaisonnalisation of flows.

To achieve this, he is focused on intensifying strategic partnerships across the entire French distribution chain, from tour operators to agency networks, including air and rail carriers.


The five-year track record of María José Gómez Gómez

This transition arrives at the end of a five-year mandate marked by managing the Covid-19 crisis, the rebound of tourist flows, and the emergence of sustainability and digitalization issues.

During this period, María José Gómez Gómez’s strategy focused on diversifying the destination’s image, encouraging visitors to rediscover the country through new cultural and territorial perspectives.

This promotional policy unfolded across several cross-cutting themes, such as botanical heritage, journeys around artisanal crafts, and the strengthening of the network of Spanish villages.

This orientation aimed to renew travelers’ perceptions of the territory, in line with the institutional campaign: “Do you know Spain? Think again.”

New Strike Looms for easyJet France

TAP Air Portugal


Same old story. The cards are not in the hands of EasyJet France’s management, but in the hands of the unions.

The management had managed to quell the biggest social blaze in its history, with the inter-union strike by the cabin crew, which protested against institutionalized and increasing scheduling instability. On the eve of a new walkout, a fresh flare has just broken out.

We have learned that EasyJet’s National Pilots Union (SNPL) filed a strike notice on the evening of Thursday, September 3.

The anger has reached the fore of the low-cost’s aircraft.

While management had said it would not negotiate under the threat of a walkout, it ultimately had to yield due to the movement’s intensity and cost, as we revealed in a previous article.

Did the pilots seize the opening that had just appeared to push for a win?

Time will tell. In any case, discontent is audible in the cockpits of easyJet France, for reasons partly similar to those of their fellow cabin crew and flight attendants.


easyJet France: a strike notice during a September weekend

This time, the strike is intended to be rapid.

It will not run for several weeks, as was the case for the cabin crew.

The notice therefore outlines a social movement from September 13 at 04:59 to September 14 at 23:59.

A anger that fits within the framework of the NAO, the mandatory annual negotiations, which stretched over four months. The union laments meetings that were too rare, weak arguments, limited progress, and the absence of commitments from management.

“The Company expects you to be flexible every day to keep the operation running. It expects you to absorb disruptions, to accept changes in the schedule, to ensure difficult rotations, and to keep delivering“, explains the union leaflet.

Facing this high flexibility demanded of pilots, the SNPL deplores the lack of commitments to reduce fatigue and improve working conditions. It explains that the management states that now is not the right moment and hints at 2028, perhaps, as the appropriate year to advance on these topics.

The pilots do not want to wait.

The strike notice was communicated to the company on August 27, 2026. The staff representatives waited before publishing it, to give one last chance for dialogue.


easyJet France: “why should we invest in our pilots?”

But the latest discussions did not meet expectations. The SNPL denounces the gradual collapse of a dignified social dialogue.

The proposal involved a base salary increase of 3.7%, then in 2027 an increase that would be 2% above the consumer price index.

In addition, to finance ancillary measures, it was proposed to “reduce the base salary increase for all grades“. Across the entire low-cost network, pilots’ salary increases would likely range between 5% and 10% per year.

Other measures were also on the table, but they were too far from expectations. The proposal was therefore not submitted to a vote by SNPL members.

Moreover, a sentence reportedly uttered by the union seems to have lit the fuse.

When asked by the management to reward pilots faithful to the orange uniform, the response was: “why should we invest in our pilots?”

In addition, as with the cabin crew, there was a great daily instability in rosters, which reportedly reached 50.56% over the last two years, according to the document.

“The management has chosen not to listen. It wants our flexibility, our loyalty and our engagement, while refusing to grant us stability, meaningful protections, or even a functional social dialogue“, concludes the leaflet.

Note that in a few days, the cabin crew’s NAO negotiations should also begin… in an explosive climate.

Volotea to Cut Capacity in France Amid Strike

by


Volotea : "des réductions de voilure dans les bases françaises" - Crédit photo : RP

TAP Air Portugal


Low-cost air travel in France is in the midst of a storm.

Since mid-August, strikes have been piling up and the latest concerns Volotea, a company that is having a difficult year in 2026.

Au printemps dernier, comme nous vous le révélions, elle a dû affronter la polémique des surcharges carburant et des annulations de vols, en raison de la flambée du kérosène.

From now on, it faces a rare pilots’ strike that extends over the weekend of September 4-6, 2026. Le préavis a été signé par le SNPL, l’UNAC et le SPL.

La direction nous annonce l’annulation de six vols vers Perpignan, Bordeaux et Figari, au départ de sa base de Lille, pour la journée du vendredi 4 septembre.

“The staff face pressures and subtle threats from management.

En dépit de cela, des copilotes ont décidé de se déclarer en grève, cela nous donne du baume au cœur. Malgré cela, nous sommes sur une fourchette de grévistes comprise entre 20 et 45 %.

There is a possibility of circumventing, since the company is reassembling crews to operate flights during this strike, with staff coming from Barcelona.

It prefers to absorb the impact of this strike rather than improve our working conditions, explique Patrick Marciniak, délégué du SNPL.


Volotea: “cutbacks in the French bases”

And this practice, bordering on legality according to the Volotea pilot, is not the only thing shocking the occupants of the low-cost cockpits.

Au lieu de s’asseoir autour de la table des négociations, le management a convoqué un CSE extraordinaire pour annoncer de bien mauvaises nouvelles.

“The management acknowledged our strike notice by telling us they would get back to us in the course of the following week.

And they did come back to announce an extraordinary CSE to discuss a cutback on some bases, without mentioning the strike at any point.

Nous avons été très surpris.

Nous les avons sollicités, en expliquant que le préavis de grève courait toujours. Ils nous ont fait comprendre que l’entreprise préférait entrer en conflit, afin de démontrer que les conflits ne durent jamais“, nous rapporte le commandant de bord.

Une direction qui semble donc montrer les muscles.

Et cette menace de réduction de l’activité n’a pas été lancée en l’air. Nous avons appris que de nombreux vols vont être supprimés dans le programme hiver de Volotea.

Brest va perdre quatre lignes, vers Lanzarote, Barcelone, Rome et Tenerife. Bordeaux en perdra huit, vers Lanzarote, Bari, Charleroi, Rome, Fuerteventura, Naples, Prague et Tenerife. Pour Lyon, six lignes seront concernées, vers Malaga, Ajaccio, Athènes, Bari, Grande Canarie et Porto.

Lille, Marseille, Rodez, Strasbourg et Toulouse seront aussi impactées.


Volotea justifies the activity slowdown at its bases by kerosene

“This CSE extraordinary indeed took place and it did not even respect the legal framework for such meetings.

The consultation and the opinion were requested at the same meeting, rather than respecting the one-month notice.

It was explained to us that the activity reduction at the bases was linked to the rise in kerosene prices. But this announcement was made at the moment we filed the notice“, nous explique-t-il, perplexe.
Et cette réduction, selon ses propres mots, serait plus ou moins conséquente selon les bases.

L’entreprise est entrée dans des discussions avec les équipages concernés par cette réduction de voilure. Pour l’heure, le délégué SNPL n’a pas voulu nous en dire plus.

Un exemple qui illustre bien le mode de fonctionnement observé dans les sièges des low cost confrontées à des mouvements sociaux.

Pour quelles raisons les pilotes ont-ils décidé d’entrer en grève ?

“Il existe deux raisons principales.

La grille de rémunération n’a pas été réévaluée depuis 2012. Lors de chaque NAO, le sujet a été abordé, avec toujours la même réponse négative, en avançant que notre progression se fait par l’ancienneté dans l’entreprise.

Avec un niveau d’inflation de 25 % depuis 2012, nous nous retrouvons avec une grille salariale qui était 25 % plus attractive au moment de la création de l’entreprise.

Après, nous savions très bien que nous ne pouvions pas demander ce montant, eu égard à la situation du secteur, confronté à la hausse des cours du kérosène“, détaille le syndicaliste.


Volotea : le SNPL demande une hausse juste pour atteindre le niveau du SMIC

In low-cost airlines, unlike a legacy, fuel is often the primary expense. Payroll comes in second, third, or even fourth.

Donc, avec un kérosène encore en hausse de plus de 77 % par rapport à l’année passée, il devient compliqué pour les transporteurs de garantir leur promesse de prix bas.

“On demande une augmentation des salaires de 20 % pour les second officers afin de les amener simplement au niveau du SMIC,le niveau de décence minimal pour pouvoir embaucher quelqu’un aujourd’hui en France.

Un niveau qui n’est pas atteint par les copilotes qui ne volent pas suffisamment, ce qui arrive.

Pour les autres, nous avons demandé une augmentation de 10 %.Une étude a été commandée par le CSE l’année dernière. Elle a révélé que nous étions 40 % en dessous de la moyenne des acteurs hors Air France sur le marché français, et jusqu’à 50 % pour les commandants de bord.

Nous ne voulons pas un rattrapage par rapport à Air France, ce serait insoutenable pour la compagnie. Ni même un rattrapage de l’inflation, ce ne serait pas audible pour nos passagers“, se montre mesuré Patrick Marciniak.

En 2022, déjà, un précédent mouvement avait eu lieu pour obtenir une hausse des salaires.

Quatre ans plus tard, la rémunération n’est pas la seule revendication des PNT. Un peu à l’image de leurs confrères d’easyJet France, qui appellent à débrayer dans dix jours, le SNPL Volotea exige de meilleures conditions de travail.


Volotea : les pilotes dénoncent des conditions de travail à la limite du supportable

“Volotea uses to the maximum what is allowed by the European framework.

This means we have schedules that can include several days with four flights per day for crews. And the days are becoming increasingly hard in succession. You start your first day at 5 a.m. to end the week with two night flights.

Or you take your last flight at 9 p.m., to arrive at the hotel a few hours later and resume the next day with a 7 a.m. flight, without having slept. We want the company to rethink its methodology for building schedules“, nous partage-t-il.

Face à l’absence de réponse et de discussions pour résoudre ces points de friction, le SNPL, l’UNAC et le SPL étudient les suites à donner à ce conflit.

La décision de renouveler la grève devra donc être collégiale. Une chose est sûre, le préavis peut permettre d’étendre le mouvement social au-delà du 6 septembre.

Chaque jour non travaillé a un impact important sur les salaires des grévistes, pendant que des primes sont offertes à ceux qui voleront durant le débrayage. Reste donc à savoir si les pilotes acteront la poursuite du conflit.

Une chose est sûre, les mêmes demandes émergent chez les salariés de plusieurs compagnies low cost, face à des comportements dignes des “livres d’histoire des grèves qui ont eu lieu dans l’industrie“.“, se montre mesuré.


Trenitalia France Opens Frecciarossa to Interrail and Eurail Pass Holders

TAP Air Portugal


Trenitalia France continues its expansion on the European rail market. The company announces its integration into the Interrail and Eurail networks, thereby granting access to its Frecciarossa trains to holders of the famous rail passes.

This evolution concerns both European travelers holding an Interrail Pass and international customers traveling with a Eurail Pass. They can now include Trenitalia France-operated connections in their itineraries across the 33 countries covered by the network.

Travelers have two options: the Flexi Pass, which allows selecting a fixed number of travel days within a given period, and the Continuous Pass, which offers unlimited travel for the duration of the title’s validity.


Trenitalia France: a driver for the company’s growth

Fully digital, the Passes are accessible via the Rail Planner app, which allows you to plan your journey, add Frecciarossa trips, and present your pass during checks.

To ride Trenitalia France trains, seat reservations remain mandatory. Its cost is set at 10 euros for domestic journeys and at 13 euros for international routes. Reservations can be made online, at Trenitalia France ticket offices, or via the company’s call center.

For Marco Caposciutti, president of Trenitalia France, this integration fits into the company’s growth strategy.

This partnership with Interrail B.V is, for us, a genuine strategic lever in our development on the rail market. It fully aligns with Trenitalia France’s mission: to promote train travel and offer a travel alternative that is simpler and more sustainable, he states in the press release.

This Pass responds to a strong trend: travelers seeking a novel experience, where the journey becomes an essential part of the trip. » he adds.

The integration of Trenitalia France into the Interrail/Eurail Pass network gives travelers even more freedom to go further and follow their curiosity beyond borders, explains Wouter Wolff, head of public affairs and strategic relations at Interrail B.V.

Present in France since December 2021 as part of the opening to competition of passenger rail, Trenitalia now operates the Paris-Lyon, Paris-Milan, and Paris-Marseille lines.

Trenitalia France Accepts American Express Card

TAP Air Portugal


Travelers on Trenitalia in France can now pay for their train tickets with their American Express card across all of the company’s sales channels.

This option applies to reservations made on the website, the Trenitalia Pro platform, the mobile app, the call center, as well as at the company’s ticket counters.

This new payment method is being rolled out ahead of the summer season to simplify ticket purchases on the network’s main routes, such as Paris-Lyon, Paris-Marseille and Paris-Milan.


Une flexibilité accrue pour les déplacements professionnels et de loisirs

“Beyond the journey itself, we know that the quality of the experience starts as soon as you book: choosing the sales channel, ease of payment, clarity and smoothness of the purchase.

By diversifying the available payment methods, we strengthen this service promise and support how travelers use services, whether they are traveling for leisure, holidays, or business needs,” commented Marco Caposciutti, the president of Trenitalia France.

The integration of this payment option aims to offer greater flexibility to passengers, whether they travel for personal or professional reasons.

The American Express network currently counts more than 170 million partner merchants worldwide. In the French market, the number of establishments and services that accept this payment method has tripled since 2021.

TUI France: Last-Minute Bookings Up 20% This Summer

TAP Air Portugal


While the French remain largely inclined toward advance bookings, last-minute departures are on the rise this summer.

TUI France indicates that bookings made in the 31 days preceding departure for the Clubs Lookéa and Marmara have increased by 20 % compared with summer 2025.

According to the tour operator, this trend reflects heightened traveler interest in last-minute offers, without undermining the habit of planning ahead. In total, 74 % of customers still reserve their holidays three to nine months before departure.

More precisely, 46 % book their reservation three to six months in advance, 25 % between six and nine months, while 3 % reserve more than nine months ahead of their stay. Conversely, 20 % book between one and three months before departure and 6 % only in the month preceding their vacation.

In a press release, Christophe Fuss, CEO of TUI France, states that “last-minute is gaining ground this year but it does not replace anticipation“, noting a growing demand for flexibility and good deals, especially for seaside destinations and club stays.


A last-minute traveler who most often travels as a couple

According to data released by TUI France, last-minute travelers predominantly go with a companion. Couples account for 60 % of bookings, ahead of families at 35 %, while solo travelers constitute only 5 %.

Mediterranean destinations remain the most sought-after for this booking pattern. Greece tops the list, followed by Italy and Tunisia. Among the most requested properties are the Marmara Doreta Beach Club in Rhodes, the Marmara Sicilia in Sicily, and the Lookéa Playa Djerba Club in Tunisia.

On theNouvelles Frontières itineraries side, reservations made one month prior are also rising. Itineraries to Iceland, Canada, and Portugal feature among the most in demand. For the TUI Sélection range, the Balearics, Crete, and Morocco remain the favored destinations for last-minute vacationers.

Finally, despite the growth of online bookings, the physical distribution network remains important. According to TUI France, 22 % of last-minute travelers book through one of the more than 200 TUI Stores across France.

Monts du Genevois Bet on Digital to Extend Tour de France Momentum

by


Les Monts du Genevois prolongent le Tour de France avec une chasse aux trésors digitale - Depositphotos.com, southmind

Costa Rica


The Tour de France’s passage placed the Monts du Genevois in the spotlight on July 19.

The 15th stage of the Grande Boucle notably crossed the Col de la Croisette, perched at over 1,300 meters altitude, in the Salève massif.

On the occasion of this event, the Office de Tourisme des Monts du Genevois launched a gamification experience aimed at extending interest beyond the riders’ passage.

Until July 31, 2026, residents, visitors and curious people are invited to explore the area through a playful route accessible from a smartphone, a tablet or a computer.


A Treasure Hunt Inspired by the World of Cycling


Illustration : OT des Monts du Genevois

The setup rests on an interactive map and a series of local riddles.

Participants progress through several stages inspired by cycling vocabulary: breakaways, ascents, intermediate sprints, and even mythical cols.

As they advance, they must locate symbols hidden in various locations across the Monts du Genevois.

The riddles lead them to viewpoints, natural sites, villages and addresses that contribute to the territory’s appeal.

A secondary quest, designed as a “time trial,” completes the experience.

It allows the most motivated participants to take on an extra challenge and win goodies, in a nod to the Tour de France’s advertising caravan.


Local Experiences to Win

The prizes have been designed in collaboration with several tourism players and professionals of the Monts du Genevois. The top prize, awarded by draw, will offer two people an immersion in the territory.

The stay includes, notably, a ride on the Salève cable car, a gourmet lunch at Hôtel-Restaurant L’Arborescence, and a night in the Salève Cabanes. Winners will also receive a personalized roadbook crafted by the Office de Tourisme.

A second draw also makes it possible to win several local experiences, including entries to UCPA Vitam, Filenvol, or the Salève cable car.


Making Visiting an Interactive Experience

Through this initiative, the Monts du Genevois Tourism Office aims to extend the Tour de France’s impact beyond the mere passing of the race.

The sporting event thus becomes the starting point for a tourism and digital experience intended to encourage discovering the territory.

The project relies on the experiential tourism trend, which motivates visitors to seek out activities and experiences to live rather than merely follow itineraries. The gamification here transforms the discovery of the Monts du Genevois into an interactive adventure.

The smartphone becomes the platform for this exploration, while the riddles guide participants to different sites around the territory.

A way for the Tourism Office to highlight its landscapes, its villages, and its tourism stakeholders in a playful light, while capitalizing on the visibility offered by the Tour de France’s passage.
