Passenger Reports
The over the channel section was legitimately rough. I was holding on to the armrests. Lasted maybe 40 minutes. One of the flight attendants had to sit down. Not a fun 3h 50m flight but we landed fine.

Moderate turbulence over the Alps — the kind where you're glad you kept your seatbelt on. Lasted about 30-40 minutes, then smoothed out. I've had worse on transatlantic routes.
Frequent flyer · August
This was genuinely difficult for me. Real bumps for a long stretch near the coast, seatbelt sign on for what felt like forever. The flight attendants were calm which helped. Got through it.
