Due to the wind storm which swept Corsica this Sunday and led to the cancellation of several flights, many travelers were unable to reach the island. If the situation returns to normal in Nice and Marseille, connections with Paris required the installation of an additional plane this Tuesday.

Since yesterday afternoon, at the headquarters of Air Corsica and at the counters of the island company in the airports of Nice, Marseille and Paris, we have had to manage an emergency situation.
Sunday, December 22, strong gusts of wind forced the company to cancel all its flights for the second part of the day. And if, this Monday morning, the milder weather allowed the rotations to resume normally, it was still necessary to take care of the passengers who were unable to travel yesterday.
Between those who left thanks to the waiting lists, those who changed their flight for December 24, thanks to a few remaining places, and those who opted for another solution, “the situation is returning to normal in Nice and Marseille”we are assured by the management of Air Corsica.
But in Paris, it's more complicated. The company therefore added a flight this Tuesday, December 24. It will take off at 10 a.m. from Orly towards Ajaccio.
Passengers still awaiting their departure for the Imperial City must contact Air Corsica to be transferred to this flight.
