Eastern Airways has announced plans to move its flights from Paris to the main hub at Charles de Gaulle Airport.
The regional airline has launched flights from Cardiff, East Midlands and Southampton to Paris Orly. last year, operating in cooperation with Air France.
Services from the East Midlands and Southampton will now move to Paris CDG Terminal 2 in April, “following the securing of rare landing and take-off slots”.
Eastern Airways said the move will allow for expanded global connectivity through the airline's interline agreement with Air France-KLM Group.
However, the company also confirmed that “with only two free slots, the current Cardiff-Orly service will cease in the short term.”
Daily flight times (except Saturdays) are detailed in the tables below.
Commenting on the news, Roger Hage, Chief Commercial Officer of Eastern Airways, said:
“We are delighted to expand this cooperation with Air France and open wider connectivity to Europe's second largest city, for both business and leisure travellers.
“The first year has seen strong demand and notable growth throughout, which, given the importance of Paris and France hosting the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, the welcome move to Charles-De-Gaulle will help improve direct year-round access to France, including Disneyland Paris. .”
