Budget airline EasyJet has confirmed it will launch a brand new route connecting London Stansted Airport with Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport, with services commencing in March 2026. This strategic expansion adds Paris to Stansted's already extensive European network, providing passengers across the region with enhanced travel options.
Route Details and Scheduling
The new service will operate twice weekly, specifically on Mondays and Fridays, offering a convenient schedule for both leisure and business travellers. Flights are scheduled to begin on March 5, 2026, marking a significant addition to EasyJet's operations from the London area.
Affordable Access to a Premier Destination
Seats are now available for booking through easyJet.com and the airline's mobile application, with promotional fares starting from just £35.99. In a complementary move, EasyJet Holidays has introduced integrated package deals that combine these flights with hotel accommodations, simplifying the process for travellers looking to experience Paris comprehensively.
Paris consistently ranks as one of Europe's most sought-after destinations, celebrated for its iconic art scene, historic monuments like the Eiffel Tower, and dynamic cultural offerings—from the legendary Moulin Rouge to the magic of Disneyland Paris. This new route establishes a quick and economical gateway to the French capital.
Executive Perspectives on the Launch
Ciaran Brannigan, Commercial Director at London Stansted Airport, expressed enthusiasm about the development: "We're delighted EasyJet is adding a new Paris service to its London Stansted schedule from March next year. The French capital is a fantastic addition to our extensive European network and a route which I'm sure will prove very popular with both leisure and business passengers from across the region."
Kevin Doyle, EasyJet UK Country Manager, highlighted the airline's ongoing commitment: "In our 30th year, we remain as dedicated as ever to making travel easy and affordable for our UK customers. With this latest route to Paris—anticipated to attract both business and leisure travellers—now available for booking for flights and holidays from London Stansted for next summer, we continue to provide our regional customers with greater choice, connectivity, and exceptional fares. We eagerly anticipate welcoming them on board."
Context and Tourism Appeal
This route launch follows recent data revealing France as the world's most visited country, having welcomed an impressive 102 million visitors in 2025 alone. The new Stansted-Paris connection is poised to tap into this robust tourism demand, offering UK travellers a streamlined and cost-effective option to explore one of the globe's premier destinations.
