Air France, in co-operation with subsidiaries CityJet and VLM Airlines, is revising its service between London City and Strasbourg to improve departure times for customers. The newly-timed service, operated by VLM Airlines as a codeshare service, will offer a twice-daily operation every weekday and daily flights on Saturdays and Sundays.
The route will be operated by a Fokker 50 having business class and economy class services. The aircraft replaces a Dornier 328. Johan Vanneste, managing director of the London City network for CityJet and VLM Airlines, commented, “We’re delighted to be offering our award-winning service to Air France customers travelling between Strasbourg and the heart of London.”
Flights from London City depart at 08:10, arriving at Strasbourg International Airport at 11:05, and a 17:55 London take-off, arriving at 20:50, every weekday and also on Sundays. The Saturday service will depart from London City at 09:45, arriving at 12:40.
Departures from Strasbourg will leave at 08:15, arriving in London City Airport at 09:15 on weekdays and Saturdays, with a second flight leaving at 17:15, arriving in London at 18:15 on weekdays and Sundays.
