La Compagnie (B0, Paris Orly) has announced it will expand its network of flights to now include services from Milan Malpensa, Italy and Tel Aviv Ben Gurion, Israel.
The French all-premium carrier resumed scheduled flights on June 12 on only its core return route - from Paris Orly to New York Newark. For now, it operates it 2x weekly but will gradually increase the frequency to daily as of September. It will resume its other French service, from Nice, on July 2. Historically, La Compagnie's network has been limited to these two routes, but now it plans to add services from Tel Aviv starting on July 21 albeit initially scheduled as a seasonal route through October 30, 2021.
"Over the past several weeks, we see have seen an increasing demand for flights to Israel out of the United States. Our 100% Smart Business Class product is the perfect fit for this high-end clientele," President Christian Vernet said.
Flights from Tel Aviv will operate 3x weekly via Paris Orly where the aircraft will have a 90-minute stop.
In the Winter 2021/22 season, La Compagnie will launch another entirely new route, Milan-Newark. The 4x weekly direct flights will begin on November 29, 2021.
"In the post-COVID-19 era, we anticipate a lower demand on our New York-Paris route, therefore we need to diversify our destinations offering and look for alternative routes for our second aircraft," Vernet added.
La Compagnie operates two A321-200NX(LR)s configured for just up to 76 passengers in an all-business-class layout.
