easyJet is celebrating the launch of its new route from Newcastle Airport to Paris.
The first flight departed Newcastle Airport on Sunday 27 October and the new service will operate up to six days a week.
The flight will provide passengers flying from the North East of England with even more choice when looking to visit one of Europe’s most beautiful city break destinations.
With convenient departure times and a total flight duration of just 1 hour 45 minutes, passengers can make the most of their time and quickly immerse themselves in the city – exploring its iconic landmarks, see the world-famous cabaret at the Moulin Rouge or take a trip to Disneyland Paris.
The new route is one of several new additions to easyJet's winter 2024/25 schedule from Newcastle Airport, which also includes a new route Lyon in France and increased frequencies to Amsterdam and Geneva.
