Conclusions
• Paris airports (BVA, CDG, ORY) account for only 25% of
new French routes (39/156) in 2011 down from 30% in
2010. In 2012 (so far) Paris airports account for less than
20% of new French routes (27/167).
• Capacity analysis indicates growth in Europe this summer
but GDP forecasts suggest flat/declining economy.
• Consistently high fuel prices (and worker relations?) will
challenge airline profitability in 2012.
