Approximately 1,000 passengers were forced to stay overnight at the airport, where beds were set up and food was provided. In Paris, Storm Goretti led to the cancellation of 140 flights, and public transport was suspended due to blocked roads. Météo France issued alerts for 38 departments due to heavy snowfall. In Spain, the snow affected rail and road traffic, and in the Western Balkans, passengers were stranded on trains.
