The best time to fly to Paris

As with the UK, the climate in Paris is generally mild with moderately warm temperatures during the summer months and icy sub-zero drops in the winter months.

This is likely because the picturesque city comes alive in the sunshine, with events such as Bastille Day, Paris Plages, Fête des Tuileries and The Rock en Seine festival taking place.

Off-peak seasons fall just before and after the Christmas season from late November to early December and January to February. During this period, the demand for flights to Paris will be lower, meaning prices are likely to be cheaper than average.
