Transavia

Transavia, the low-cost subsidiary of Air France-KLM, is now operating routes previously served by Air France from Paris-Orly airport. This transition follows Air France's decision to consolidate its operations at Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport, marking a significant shift in the French aviation landscape. As of March 29th, Transavia has fully taken over the Paris-Orly routes to Nice, Toulouse, and Marseille, operating 28 flights on the first day of the transition. Air France will maintain only a limited presence at Orly, primarily for flights to Corsica. This move allows Air France to streamline its operations while Transavia expands its reach, offering potentially lower-cost travel options on these domestic routes. The successful and smooth transfer of these routes to Transavia highlights the airline's growing role within the Air France-KLM group and its increasing importance in the French domestic market.
