While the French authorities have undertaken to repatriate all French nationals stranded abroad, they have also launched a scheme to put travellers in touch with expatriates living in France. Thanks to this initiative, it is possible to offer accommodation and also to easily find one when one is unable to return home immediately. While in some countries, such as Spain, hotels are closing and many airlines are suspending flights, the scheme is welcome. Travellers should also remember to register on the Ariane website. As a reminder, its role is to enable consulates and embassies to inform travellers and to register them in the country where they are. More information on the SOS un toit website.
