In 2025, 43% of our routes will serve island connections.”

This new route will provide an alternative for travelers seeking to explore the cultural and scenic richness of Occitanie, as well as those wishing to enjoy the Mediterranean charm of Mallorca. Additionally, it will improve mobility options for regions with limited direct air travel alternatives.
