Aigle Azur presses on with long-haul growth plans
French leisure airline Aigle Azur will make changes in its operations to and from China and Brazil as it continues with long-haul expansion plans, while maintaining services to its established European and African destinations. Beijing service, which the carrier began last year, will be reorganized from May to improve connections with partner Hainan Airlines’ network, resulting in a temporary suspension of Paris-Beijing flights while awaiting approval for new slots from CAAC. Aigle Azur said it would suspend its 3 weekly Paris Orly-Beijing flights from the end of March “for a few weeks,” before starting again with 3 weekly flights at different times. The carrier also said it would add its code to Hainan Airlines from Paris Charles de Gaulle to Shenzhen and Chongqing, adding to the codeshare already on the Xi’an flight. <br/>
