Air Seychelles to operate to Paris-Orly

Air Seychelles has announced it will launch flights to Paris-Orly, subject to regulatory approval, as part of a significant expansion to its international schedule.
The carrier has also introduced several new routes to its regional network.
From February, Air Seychelles will operate twice-weekly flights between Seychelles and Paris, via Abu Dhabi, with an A330-200.
The new services complement equity partner Etihad Airways’ existing double-daily services to Paris-Charles de Gaulle (CDG), offering passengers more choice and convenient connections to the Etihad network.

Currently, the island carrier codeshares on 14 flights a week to Paris-CDG with Etihad Airways.

Air Seychelles also unveiled a new regional network plan, subject to approvals, which will see expansion of its operations in the Indian Ocean by the end of 2014, following the delivery of an A319.
Te plan includes the launch of regional services to Antananarivo, Reunion and Mumbia.

Services to Abu Dhabi will be increased from seven to 11 per week, offering a double daily service with Etihad Airways.

 The carrier will also operate three return flights a week to Hong Kong and Johannesburg.
Altogether, weekly international services will nearly double from 16 to 29 flights a week.
