A budget airline has launched a cheap new route flying from Stansted to a European capital city.
Jet2 has announced they will be operating a new route to Paris Charles de Gaule from March 2027.
They will be putting on four flights a week, offering passengers a direct flight to the city.
On their website, Jet2 said: "France’s capital of cool really does have it all.
"Whether you’re visiting the iconic sights, exploring low-key neighbourhoods or perusing through boutique shops, you’re spoilt for choice.
"With flights to Paris, you could be right in the heart of all this culture.

"On top of that, any foodies out there will be in their element.
"From a humble croissant and coffee at a little café, through to edgy eateries where innovation is first on the menu, there’s something for every palate."
Jet2 operate from Paris Charles de Gaulle terminal 3.
This is approximately 400m walk from Aéroport Charles de Gaulle 1 Train Station, Roissy-Pole Bus Terminal, and the free automated metro service, the CDGVAL.
The CDGVAL connects all terminals and car parking areas, with trains scheduled every four minutes.
The route to and from terminal 3 is clearly signposted and wheelchair accessible.
They note, the walk is outdoors and along a public footpath, so we recommend being prepared for local weather conditions.
The news comes after some flights out of Stansted are expected to be cancelled following the closure of a major Spanish airport.
Around 3.6 million people travel through Santiago-Rosalía de Castro Airport each year.
However, the airport has closed for a month from April 23 until May 27 for resurfacing works can be carried out on the runways.
