La Compagnie (B0, Paris Orly) will briefly restart scheduled operations in late 2020 to operate three return services between Paris Orly and New York Newark during the holiday high season.
The carrier said it would operate flights on December 19-20, 26-27, and January 2-3, 2021. Services will only be available for eligible passengers. Leisure passengers are prohibited from travelling between the US and France on both sides.
The French business-class-only scheduled operator has been dormant in terms of scheduled operations since March 18, 2020, when its transatlantic flights were halted due to the COVID-related border restrictions. The airline exclusively operates between France (Orly and seasonally Nice) and Newark. With US borders closed to travellers from Europe and vice versa, it was cut off from its only market.
La Compagnie used its two A321-200NX(LR)s for a highly limited number of charter operations in September and October 2020. The airline has yet to announce a date for the resumption of regular scheduled services.
