Medium-haul flights more expensive, long-haul stable
While they remain stable on long-haul flights (-0.2%, to 699 euros), the prices of plane tickets are increasing on domestic flights (2.2%, to 235 euros), and even more on medium-haul (+6.1%, at 293 euros).
In detail, the strongest increases concern Morocco (+8%), Italy (+11%), Tunisia (+12%), the United Kingdom (+20%), Greece (+11 % Greece), Germany (+15%).
On distant destinations, the apparent stability hides on the one hand price surges (United States +10%, Canada +11%). And on the other hand, notable declines towards Overseas (Reunion -9%, 10%, Martinique -16%, Guadeloupe -8%). Same towards Asia (Japan -18%, Vietnam -10%).
Destination trends: Egypt rises, Ivory Coast falls
In terms of destinations, MisterFly notes a rise in Egypt (+9 places), Vietnam (+5), Germany (+4), Japan (+3). Gains partly linked to price erosion. On the other hand, Ivory Coast is losing ground (-5 places), so is Canada (-4).

In total, the air ticketing specialist MisterFly of the Digitrips group analyzed 92,398 tickets reserved in economy class in May 2024.
