Since the end of March, Transavia has taken over all domestic flights from Air France from Paris Orly – and frequent flyers should probably make their way to Charles de Gaulle to continue flying with Air France.

Not only have frequencies been massively reduced, but frequent flyers also suffer from a worse offering.
Only Flying Blue members earn miles and status points on Transavia flights (but significantly fewer than on Air France flights), not members of other SkyTeam programs.

In May, Transavia will open its own lounge in Orly, which, however, not only looks spartan, but is also open to Flying Blue members holding at least Platinum status only. Unlike Air France lounges, which can be accessed already with Gold status – or the SkyTeam Elite Plus status in partner programs.
