Hello,

This is for the title.

Would you put informations et réservations (both plural) or information et réservation (both singular)

Thank you!

renseignements et réservations
Explanation:
In very many contexts, EN 'information' would be 'renseignements' in FR — so are you sure that 'informations' is really the term you need?

If you look at things like 'information desks', they often have a sign 'renseignements'

  -> Choukrane, Chakib!
agree  Jean-Claude Gouin: 1. I agree with you, Tony, regarding 'renseignements' in many contexts. 2. I once tried to write 'chokran' in Arabic but ProZ.com wouldn't let me. 3. Bonne et Heureuse Année ... // I just sent you an e-mail ...

  -> 1. Merci ! 2. I'm surprised, since many character sets are supported — but I'd be only too happy to know how to write it properly! 3. Meilleurs vœux à toi aussi !
