“We continue to serve our customers in Bristol and Manchester with daily flights to Paris Charles de Gaulle, offering connections to over 80 destinations from Bristol and 88 destinations from Manchester across Europe and North Africa.".
Speaking to The Sun, an EasyJet representative said: "Following a review of the routes, easyJet can confirm that from 28 March it will no longer operate flights from Paris Orly to Manchester and Bristol.
In a statement, Ryanair’s chief commercial officer Jason McGuinness said: “Ryanair is now reviewing its French schedules and expects to cut capacity to/from regional French airports by up to 50 percent from January 2025 if the French government proceeds with its short-sighted plan to triple passenger taxes.
The axed routes offered fares for as little as £17.99 each way, with flights from Manchester taking one hour 45 minutes, and flights from Bristol taking one hour 25 minutes.
After a tax hike at French airports last autumn, Ryanair announced they were looking at cutting down routes to regional French airports, although Parisian hubs were not thought to be among them.
