All Corsican Ports Paralysed

October 4, 2024

On 3 October, Corsica experienced the start of a significant strike that paralysed all four airports and six ports on the island. The strike stems from a conflict between local officials and the French state regarding a plan to transfer management of the ports and airports to a quasi-public entity, allowing continued control without a formal bidding process. This action has caused widespread disruption in transport across Corsica.
