Air France (AF, Paris CDG) has confirmed press reports that it plans to increase the number of international flights from Paris Orly which currently mainly plays the role of a domestic airport for Air France. It now plans to better deploy its A320 family fleet based at the airport operating international flights during the day while demand on domestic routes is not as strong as in the mornings and evenings complementing its international operations from Paris CDG. Air France did not want to confirm reports by Le Parisien that it would launch new routes from Orly to Athens, Casablanca Mohammed V, Istanbul Atatürk and Rome Fiumicino but announced the new flights scheduled to be launched from October would be announced soon. It currently already serves Barcelona El Prat, Bern, Djerba and London City from Orly in addition to its domestic flights and long-haul routes to Cayenne, Fort de France, Pointe à Pitre and St. Denis de la Réunion.
