Two French Low-Cost Carriers to Offer Service to New York in 2020
Two low-cost French airlines announced plans to offer non-stop service from Paris Orly Airport to Newark Liberty International Airport in the New York metropolitan area.
Both French bee and Corsair International will offer flights starting on June 10, 2020. French bee will operate its flights using Airbus A350-900 aircraft. Corsair will use Airbus A330-900neo jets.
Founded in 2016, French bee was originally known as French Blue until it changed its name following the objection of JetBlue Airways when it applied to the U.S. Department of Transportation for a foreign carrier permit.
Previously Corsairfly, Corsair International, which was founded in 1981, is owned by Intro Aviation, a German investor, and TUI AG, the largest leisure travel company in the world.
