With more planes and opening of new lines, a subsidiary of Air France
wants to become the largest low-cost airline operating from Paris-Orly.
With 31 aircraft flying from Amsterdam to 104 destinations, Transavia Holland does not have much development margins. It serves indeed the main destinations "leisure" which the Dutch are fond of. However, with only 14 aircraft based at Orly, Transavia France can dream big.
Following agreements with Air France pilots (the parent company), its
fleet will increase by 5 units every year to reach a total of 30.
Starting this summer, five new destinations including Le Figaro has learned exclusively complement the existing 36: Dublin, Munich and Valencia. On the other hand, Transavia continues its offensive on the Greek islands with the service of Thessaloniki. Finally, the company will open a stopover in Tirana (Albania), where no direct flight from Paris exists. Also will open a link Nantes Madrid.
As with any low-cost , it is obviously necessary to pay extra for various services such as baggage: 15 euros for 15 pounds or 20 euros for 20 pounds, 40 euros round trip (50 euros against 20 kilos on Ryanair and easyJet 46.92 euros). To improve comfort, passengers can also purchase "more" seats (for example, those located in front of the emergency exits offering extra space) at 15 euros (15.30 euros against easyJet). On board, the map shows reasonable prices: soda or sandwich baguette 3 euros to 6 euros. Although the cabins are surdensifiées 737/800 with 189 seats (180 against 160 at KLM or Delta), the approval of the traveler remains correct.
Transavia tickets can not be combined with those of Air France unlike Vueling or Germanwings that establish links with their parent, Iberia and Lufthansa . In addition, frequent passengers were not entitled to the benefits conferred by their Flying Blue Air France (gain of miles, priority check-in, line-fast, more seat, etc.). Business travelers will therefore remain marginal on board. On this issue, the company has fallen behind its competitors who do everything to attract this. A detail in the coming months, the costumes of hostesses and stewards will be renewed, the current green flashy vintage will be replaced by a more sober color.
As for the website , you will find out in February 2015 in an ergonomic version much more flexible to use. Guests can buy them with additional services until the last minute.

"The increase in the fleet will amplify the existing frequencies, particularly in Spain, Tunisia and especially Portugal," says Hervé Kozar, deputy general manager of Transavia. With this expansion, Air France will not be compelled to abandon the competition very popular take-off and landing slots left vacant by reducing its short-haul offer. Ultimately, Transavia France aims to become the first low-cost airline from Orly, from 2.5 million to 4 million passengers.
