SNCF strike in Alençon: how to reach Paris, the station, or the airport

Strike, cancelled or delayed train: travel from Alençon regardless

Whether it is industrial action, a signaling failure, line maintenance work, or a replacement bus that doesn’t show up: in Alençon, the train station can find itself blocked overnight. Connections via Le Mans extend your travel time, and connections towards the Perche region are only available by bus.

On these days, we put vehicles with chauffeurs into service, departing from your address in Alençon to the destination of your choice: Paris, any Parisian station still in service, Roissy-Charles-de-Gaulle, Orly, Beauvais, or any other town in Normandy. A call to 06 88 14 67 82 is all it takes to find out in a minute what is still possible.

How much does it cost from Alençon?

The price is per vehicle, not per person. For four passengers traveling to Paris, it comes to approximately 60 € per person—often cheaper than a last-minute train ticket, without the need for connections or standing in queues.

Situations we handle most frequently

• National or local strike: traffic reduced to one train in three, crowded platforms, booking impossible.
• Morning train cancellation: you have an appointment, an exam, court hearing, or board meeting.
• Missed connection: you are stranded at an intermediate station, we come to pick you up.
• Flight to catch: there are no trains early enough for a 6:00 AM boarding.
• School bus or regional line cancelled: there is no longer any service to your town.
• Returning from an evening out: the last train left at 9:00 PM, and you are still dining.
• Team travel: five to nine colleagues to take to the same place in a single vehicle.

Emergency booking: how it works

1. Call 06 88 14 67 82 with your departure address in Alençon, the destination, and your required arrival time.
2. We confirm in a few minutes the vehicle, the chauffeur, and the fixed price.
3. The chauffeur arrives at the indicated address; they will call you upon arrival.
4. You pay by card on board or via invoice if your employer is covering the travel costs.

Tip: as soon as a strike notice is announced, book the day before. The 5:00 AM to 9:00 AM slots are the first to go.

Frequently asked questions

Can I book a vehicle on the same day in Alençon?

Yes, depending on our availability. On strike days, call as early as possible: demand far exceeds supply between 6:00 AM and 9:00 AM.

Does the price increase on strike days?

No. We apply the same rate card as on a normal day, with the usual surcharges for night and public holiday travel announced in advance.

Can my employer pay for the trip?

Yes, we can provide a company invoice including VAT, payable by bank transfer.

Do you offer carpooling between different travelers?

The vehicle is private. However, nothing prevents you from sharing the ride, and therefore the cost, with colleagues or other stranded travelers: this is common on strike days.

Do you operate at night?

Yes, 24/7, including for 3:00 AM or 4:00 AM departures to the airports.
