NEWS FLASH
Air France will reduce its service between Paris and Ljubljana from September onwards, discontinuing daily operations. As of September 8, the route will be operated six times per week, dropping to five weekly flights from September 29. Between October 6 and 12, frequencies will be temporarily reduced to four weekly before increasing back to five per week. A daily service will be reinstated during the final two weeks of October. For the 2025/26 winter season, which runs until March 28, the route will be maintained six times per week, down from daily for most of the previous winter. All flights will be operated by the Embraer E190. Changes remain possible.
Bravo Fraport!
ReplyDeleteThis is in parallel with the PSO routes, 2 years ago the ministry held meetings with them and the idea of PSO flights were introduced, now they are reducing the flights so they become viable for PSOs... 2x daily will be the government requirement
ReplyDeleteI really don't get the decision, the flights are always 85+% full when I'm flying. Maybe I'm just unlucky - admin do we know the load factors?
DeleteLet me guess, you only fly during summer months, or during school holidays in Slovenia?
DeleteOf course, all flights are empty, @10:53 is just making up things.
DeleteAnd off we are into the extremes. If you ever flew from LJU out of the main season (for example in end of January, February or November), you would see what a 25-35% load factor looks like.
DeleteAnd that is why LJU get less than 10.000 passengers in whole January, February and November (possibly combined according to you?).
DeleteIn May LF in Paris with AF and Transavia together was 81,5 %. This is my data from my table
DeleteI'm not Anon 10:53 and I don't have any data. I'm traveling for business, so not during the holiday season, and AF flights are usually quite full. However, I've been using KL more lately, and maybe that's the reason. I completely don't understand the logic behind the AF and KL flight schedules. It would definitely help if one of them were scheduled for another part of the day—either in the morning or late afternoon (like AF used to be), and not at the same time like it is now.
DeleteAbout damn time Transavia turns Orly from seasonal to year-round
ReplyDelete😢😥
ReplyDeleteSlovenian economy is slowing down too.
ReplyDeleteKind of unsurprising considering that the two largest dependant markets (Germany and Austria) are pretty much in a recession for the last two years.
