The head of easyJet France said on Monday that it would place two more planes on French soil next year and create 72 jobs in the process. But Director General of easyJet France François Bacchetta declined to state on what routes the new planes would be operate. The British company currently has five bases around France: Charles de Gaulle and Orly airports in Paris (15 planes), Lyon (7 planes), Nice (three planes) and Toulouse (3 planes). One out of every five easyJet passengers takes off or lands in France and more than 10 percent of the company’s fleet are based in France, the company said. Whereas Air France reported dramatic losses due to the terror attacks in Paris and Nice, Bacchetta said demand for seats on easyJet flights remains steady.
