Ryanair eyes French airfield - report

Ryanair and Wizz Air are among airlines interested in the possibility of turning an airfield in the Champagne region into a hub for low-cost carriers serving Paris, a spokeswoman for Vatry airport said tonight.

The airfield would provide easy access to Paris, just 39 minutes away from the nearby city of Reims by high-speed TGV rail. Local authorities have pledged to put in place a bus service that could reach the Disneyland Paris theme park to the west.
