Air France-KLM (UK & Ireland) Jerome Salemi, said “We are delighted to extend our Cork–Paris service throughout the year. Our flights enable local customers and businesses to access our global network while boosting inbound traffic and tourism. We are pleased to have worked closely with Cork Airport to make this possible and look forward to a continued collaboration in the future.”

Cork Airport Head of Aviation Business Development and Communications, Tara Finn said “Air France is one of our valued airline partners and the announcement of a year-round Cork – Paris Charles de Gaulle service is simply tremendous news. With a year-round connection to Europe’s third-busiest airport, it significantly improves the long-haul, onward connectivity for our customers across the South of Ireland. Air France’ operations at Cork Airport have grown from strength to strength in the past number of years and I thank the Air France-KLM team for their continued support in enhancing connectivity at Ireland’s fastest-growing airport.”
