Can anyone tell me why there are no flights from LGW to Paris? I know BA used to have them until about 2003 (I think) but now there's nothing - not from any airline.
Is it a political thing? Unprofitable perhaps?
I would've thought there'd be a market for that route.
Eurostar offers lower fares, don't have hassle of checking in with queues for security and long slog from arrival gate to Station to get into centre of Paris.
Taking your stated home as an example = leave Brighton at 8.45am and would be in Gare de Nord at 12.47am (1.47 Paris time) via Eurostar.
Getting a flight and leaving same time from Brighton for a 10.45 flight giving enough time via security you would get to CDG around midday but then the walk and catching a train would add signnificantly to that.
