Ryanair should ultimately not land at Orly airport

Awhen the Irish airline was among the beneficiaries of the allocations and reallocations by the Association for the Coordination of Slots (Cohor) of 8,112 slots at Orly airport, from where it had to ensure two round trips daily to and from Bratislava (Slovakia) and Bergamo (Italy) from 1^is April 2025 (two destinations not currently served by the Ile-de-France airport), it would have finally reversed course according to information from the newspaper Le Monde.

The daily evokes a direct decision by Michael O'Leary, the CEO of the low-cost airline. Company which, until now, has always been more inclined to benefit from the advantageous conditions (particularly financially) offered by smaller provincial airports like that of Beauvais than to pay the costly airport taxes claimed on the platforms from Orly and Paris – Charles de Gaulle.

Transavia opens new routes

If the arrival of Ryanair at Orly seems compromised, other companies are enriching their offer there. Transavia France, the low-cost subsidiary of the Air France-KLM Group, has announced new connections with Amsterdam (Netherlands) and Munich (Germany) in the coming months: five weekly flights Paris Orly – Amsterdam, on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays starting March 30, and three flights weekly flights Paris Orly – Munich, Mondays, Thursdays and Sundays from April 3 (flights from 41 euros one way).
