Oh no, sorry to hear about this. Have a safe journey back home and get well soon, Paris will be waiting when you come back. Happy birthday!

That's too bad. A friend of mine got sick during her recent trip to Germany (not COVID) and had to fly home so treated herself to a business class upgrade. I was surprised that it wasn't that expensive at the last minute, but it was only $400. So maybe you can do that, if you aren't flying business anyway.

Perhaps you haven't thought of it but you can't just give your tickets to someone else. I know you can't for the Carnavalet which is free, anyway. The terms specifically say you can't. And they can/do check your ID. The terms of the free ticket say:
"Ils sont nominatifs et ne peuvent être cédés à une personne tierce." I wouldn't be surprised that the others are the same. These sites don't want to be in the business where outside brokers can get and then sell their tickets, after all.

Sorry this happened to you. I hope you can find takers for your tickets. We just returned from Paris and went to at least 10 museums/exhibitions, not one person checked any identification.

Sorry, left the country on Saturday as United Airlines was outstanding about assisting with my travel changes and it was amazing that I had no takers for my tickets. I even offered them to tourists at major sites and no takers.
