National interprofessional strike

Due to an inter-professional national strike, the SNCF traffic is strongly reduced on the entire network.

The TGV / INTERCITES / OUIGO trains that are open for booking are guaranteed to be running, for journeys until 26 December.

It is also possible that seats will be put up for sale until the day before the departure of the trains. We invite you to regularly renew your search on our site.

Alternative solutions are available on OUI.sncf.

If you wish, you can also get an exchange or refund without any fees on OUI.sncf.

  • Important: The absence of fees is mentioned at the end of your exchange or cancellation. Remember to go through with your request. Rest assured, the exchange or cancellation of your initial ticket is only effective after your final validation.
  • If you cannot exchange your ticket online: you can first cancel it, then buy a new ticket and request a refund later by completing the formular (in French) here.
  • If cancellation is not offered online, request a refund by completing the formular (in French) here.
  • Remember: In the case of modification or renouncement of your train journey, remember to make your exchange or cancellation on OUI.sncf before the departure of your train. This will make it easier for other travelers to travel during this busy period.

How do I know if my train is running?

Note :

On Oui.sncf, some trains will appear as "complete": these trains are closed for reservation to make the journeys easier for the customers that already have a ticket.

Other trains can be displayed as "deleted": in that case, those are the trains that won't be running. 

If you receive a message from SNCF (an SMS or email) concerning one of your future journeys, this specific information takes precedence over any other information that you may obtain elsewhere. To be able to travel on a train, you must have a valid ticket on that train.
