L'Caen airport will therefore be closed to air traffic from 11 March to 18 April.<\/strong>. And arrangements have been made with the various players involved. Starting with theDeauville Normandie airport<\/strong>with which a \"mutualisation work<\/em>\"should make it possible tolimit the impact on the business<\/em>\". In concrete terms, Volotea <\/strong>will transfer some of its flights to the Deauville hub, but it is not yet known to what extent. The Spanish low-cost airline, increasingly present on the French domestic network<\/a>serves 8 destinations - including three in Corsica - from Caen airport. In addition, flights operated with Air France <\/strong>will be suspended for the duration of the works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What's more, if CCI Caen Normandie<\/strong> and CCI Seine Estuaire<\/strong> - managers of Caen and Deauville airports - have indicated that they are \"pooling their organisation\", with no shuttle service planned to transfer passengers between the two towns, as the two airports are some 70 km apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
