It's a subject that gets talked about a lot. The difficulties encountered on the road by cross-border commuters are very often at the heart of discussions, particularly on dedicated Facebook groups. This is the case on the “Info Trafic Haut Doubs” page where a post caused widespread reaction this Tuesday, October 5. The member who initiated it decided to take things with humor by talking about a future airline between Pontarlier and Lausanne. “This alternative means of transport will allow cross-border commuters to drastically reduce their travel time between France and Switzerland,” promises the latter. “In view of the work at the entrance to Pontarlier on the RN57 in the near future, this air connection will be a real alternative to the car. » Contacted by telephone, the author specifies that he is also impacted by the problem. “It’s a joke that I wanted to make, because there are a lot of problems at the border. » The prankster could have stopped there, but he decided to push the joke into the illustration.

While many people interpreted this post as a premature April Fool's joke, others started to dream. “If only”, “good idea” or even “that’s great”, we can read in the comments. “Someone even asked me if I already had the schedules,” smiles the author of the post who knew well that his joke would provoke a reaction. At the risk of disappointing some, it seems that such a project will never see the light of day.
