A new air link between London City airport and northern France is being introduced for the summer
The Normandy coastal town of Deauville will be served on Fridays and Sundays to allow weekend breaks from July 1.
French carrier L’Odyssey will deploy a 27-seat Saab 340 turboprop on the route with a flight time of just over one hour.
London City head of aviation Anne Doyere said: “Whether you’re a beach lover, foodie or entertainment seeker, Deauville has something for everyone.
“It is an undiscovered gem for British holidaymakers and it has never been so easy to get there thanks to this new service.”
L’Odyssey founder and managing director, Clement Pellistrandi added: “With L’Odyssey, we want to provide our customers with an intimate travel experience – a cozy cabin with 27 seats, very fast boarding procedures, no irritating baggage issues and reliable service.”
