Summary
European travelers brace for massive delays as new EU border checks cause up to two-hour waits at Port of Dover. The new entry-exit system, involving fingerprinting and photos, is causing manual processing at French borders. Officials advise arriving early, having documents ready, and packing essentials. Road congestion is also expected, with over twenty-three million car journeys predicted and train services disrupted. This comes as families start their half-term breaks, seeking sunshine holidays in popular destinations. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
