Air France-KLM Group’s Transavia discount arm plans to open a second base beyond its home markets of France and the Netherlands in summer 2017 after the first in Munich starts flights this month.
Transavia has shortlisted a number of possible hubs, with more German locations under consideration, and will make its choice based on the availability of operating slots, as well as demand, Chief Commercial Officer Roy Scheerder said in an interview at the ITB travel fair in Berlin.
