Transavia France — 20 million passengers in 10 years!

Transavia France, the Air France-KLM Group’s low-cost company, has celebrated its tenth anniversary. As the leading low-cost airline operating out of Paris-Orly to Europe, Transavia France has already carried 20 million passengers, owns a fleet of 29 Boeing 737s and serves 82 destinations. 

- In the years to come, we wish to develop travellers’ sense of attachment to our company, to consolidate our position as passengers’ favourite low-cost airline in France. Low-cost airlines need to successfully stand out from the competition to guarantee their future«, stated Nathalie Stubler, CEO of Transavia France.

A new momentum for the Air France-KLM Group

As part of the Group’s “Trust Together» strategic project, three major developments will allow Transavia France to improve its commercial offering for its customers:

• The company’s complete integration in the Air France-KLM frequent flyer programme. On all the company’s flights, each customer will now be able to earn Miles, starting with 500 Miles for a round trip with Plus and Max fares.
• The possibility to access Transavia France’s flight offering on the Air France website.
• The introduction, in winter 2017, of a code-share with Air France on a majority of routes.

Transavia France — rapid and reinforced development in 2017

Transavia France has generated a level of growth, which has significantly increased over the past 5 years. The momentum underway will continue in 2017, notably with:

• The growth of its fleet, which was consolidated this year with the purchase of 4 new Boeing 737-800s. In total, the Transavia France fleet currently comprises 29 aircraft.
• An increased offer, with a +14% increase in available seat/kilometre. This will concern Paris-Orly, Lyon Saint-Exupéry and Nantes Atlantic this winter.
