BA takes off for the French Riviera in exclusive new route

The first departure of the seasonal route took to the skies last Saturday, and will continue to service between London City and Toulon, Provence, until September 1st

The twice-weekly service brings the French Riviera closer to Brits this summer, with Toulon-Hyeres Airport serving as the closest commercial airport to St. Tropez.

The route will be operated by BA Cityflyer and will complement the airport’s existing route to Nice Côte d'Azur Airport. Flights lead in from £90 each way.

Anne Doyere, aviation director at London City Airport, said, “At London City, we're always looking to bring our passengers exciting new destinations and as a proud Frenchwoman this one is close to my heart. As we continue to grow our leisure offering, we are thrilled to launch the only London route to the beautiful city of Toulon, strengthening London’s connection to the south of France alongside our popular BA Cityflyer service to Nice.”
