Vueling adds Bordeaux to its French route network - the airline already operates at Paris, Toulouse and Nice

 

Paris, Toulouse (company’s new base) Nice and now Bordeaux consolidate Vueling’s growth in France with a total of 1,908,000 seats for summer 2011.

 

Vueling, the new generation airline, today puts on sale more than 28,000 seats on its new route between Barcelona and Bordeaux, which will start operating on April, 15th. The new connection consolidates Vueling’s steady growth in France. For the 2011 summer season routes to and from the country represent 1,908,000 million seats, representing 20% of the company’s total and making France Vueling’s biggest market outside Spain

 

From Spain, the total number of seats to France is divided among the 672,120 seats from Barcelona on its three French routes, Paris, Toulouse and Bordeaux; and now nearly 900,000 seats on the routes operated from 11 national airports (La Coruna, Alicante, Ciudad Real, Ibiza, Madrid, Malaga, Mallorca, Santiago, Sevilla, Tenerife and Valencia). Besides the connection with Spanish airports, Vueling will also operate four routes within France: Paris – Rome, Toulouse – Nice, Toulouse – Venice and Prague Toulouse.
