CityJet to begin daily Shannon to Paris route

A FAINT flicker of connectivity yesterday returned to Shannon Airport to ignite new hopes for business groups in the mid-west.

After months of negotiations, Swords-based CityJet announced it will provide two flights a day to Europe’s second-largest commuter hub — Paris Charles de Gaulle.

The service will begin on February 4 and allow Shannon travellers access to the international routes lost when Aer Lingus moved its Heathrow slots to Belfast.
