Jet2 has announced a significant expansion of its flight operations from three UK airports to Paris, France. The update, which applies to East Midlands Airport, London Stansted, and Manchester Airport, was made on Wednesday, April 22. The airline confirmed it would significantly increase its services from these transport hubs to the French capital, with over 150,000 seats now on sale between Paris and the UK mainland.
New Routes and Schedules
East Midlands Airport will offer two weekly services, operating on Mondays and Fridays, from March 26 to October 29, 2027. London Stansted Airport will provide four weekly services on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays, running from March 25 to October 31, 2027. Manchester Airport will also have four weekly services on the same days and dates. The East Midlands route is exclusive to Jet2, meaning the airline will operate to Paris from four UK airports in Summer 2027, with 14 weekly flights available during this period.
