COHOR, the independent, non-profit slot coordinator at Paris Orly Airport, has announced the reallocation of 8,112 slots following the loss of historical precedence by some airlines, the withdrawal of certain carriers, and the reduction or suspension of some routes.

Under EU regulation 95/93, Ryanair, as a new entrant, has been allocated slots for two daily routes from Paris Orly to Bratislava and Milan Bergamo, totalling 1,456 slots on a year-round basis.

In an interesting development, Ryanair also requested additional slots for a new route between Dublin and Paris Orly. The airline sought 1,260 slots for summer 2025, and 2,184 slots for year-round operations, requesting 21 weekly frequencies for the route.

The Dublin to Paris Orly is served by Air France-KLM Group carrier Transavia France and International Airlines Group (IAG) carrier Vueling.
