The route to Paris Orly will operate on Mondays and Fridays from November 22nd, which is the day Cork Airport is due to reopen following a ten week closure.
The announcement comes just days after Ryanair said it would be operating 20 routes and two aircraft from the airport by March next year.
Managing Director at Cork Airport welcomed the news as another boost for the region and the airport:
“We are thrilled to welcome a brand-new airline, Vueling, the Spanish low cost carrier and part of the IAG group to Cork as our newest scheduled carrier. The new twice weekly service to Paris Orly, the nearest airport to the centre of Paris, will operate on Mondays and Fridays. This news is exciting for business and tourism at both ends of the route and will further grow inbound tourism from this key continental market to counties across the South of Ireland.”
