Vueling becomes the second international airline at Orly

The slots released by Air France have had a positive effect on Vueling. Thanks to its 18 new daily frequenciesIAG's low-cost subsidiary will be opening 32 routes from Orly this November. It will become de facto the airport's second largest international carrier, just behind Transavia and ahead of Easyjet. According to the schedules of the three airlines, Vueling will now be offering 48 destinations from Paris airport. This compares with 75 destinations offered by Transavia and 23 by Easyjet.

Vueling's rise to prominence in Paris proves that the air transport sector still has a bright future in France. This expansion is considerably transforming the positioning of the low-cost carrier. Until now, the company has concentrated mainly on routes to Spain and Italy.. It also served Copenhagen, a geographical "anomaly" due to a small base in the Danish capital. Vueling currently operates 21 routes from Orly, including 14 to Spain in the high season.

From November, Vueling will be adding new destinations in Germany, Denmark, Spain, Ireland, Italy, Malta, Morocco, Norway, Sweden and the United Kingdom.
