easyJet has launched its first flight from London Stansted to Paris Charles de Gaulle, which will operate throughout the summer.

Flights to Paris Charles de Gaulle will operate four times a week on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays until October 25th on an A319 aircraft.

The airline now operates 29 routes and almost 20,000 flights a year to and from Stansted.
