    French rail strikes March 2023

    I am about to begin the Camino from St Jean Pied de Port on Thursday only to just get notification that all trains are now cancelled from Bayonne that day! Due to my flight getting into Biarritz late-ish I can’t get to SJPDP until Thursday morning. Any ideas what I can do?
