The Union said on Friday that they believed inexperienced staff were being brought in to cover for striking Border Force workers.
PCS General Secretary Mark Serwotka said: " Ministers say their priority is Security - it obviously isn't.
" They say they have No Money to give our hard-working members a fair pay rise, but then find money to pay non-striking workers a healthy bonus, to pay for their transport across the country and to pay for four nights' hotel accommodation.
" If ministers were serious about Security , they would resolve this dispute immediately by putting money on The Table to ensure fully-trained, experienced professionals are guarding our borders. "
A Home Office spokesperson said: " The queues at The Port of Calais today are not due to industrial action. Border Force operations there remain fluid with all booths open and no significant wait times.
" Border Force and port operators are working hard to ensure all travellers have a safe and secure journey, however we have been clear those entering the UK should expect disruption during strike action.
" We continue to work closely with port operators at a local and national level to minimise delays.
" Those travelling into the Uk Today should keep up-to-date with the latest advice from operators to check how The Strike action will affect their journey".
