First Direct Air Link Between Murcia and France
From July 7, the Region of Murcia will have its first direct air link with France, connecting Murcia International Airport to Marseille-Provence. Operated by Volotea, the new route will offer two weekly flights on Mondays and Thursdays. Tickets are on sale now, with around 5,000 seats available across 32 flights in July and August.
Strengthening connections with Barcelona
Volotea is also strengthening its connection with Barcelona, providing flights on Mondays and Fridays. Between June and March 2026, 37,700 additional seats will be available on this route.
Expanding Murcia’s European reach
These updates mean Murcia will soon have direct connections to 23 airports in seven European countries. The Marseille route is seen as strategic, with France being the region’s second most important international market.
Supporting regional tourism and growth
In addition, Volotea will continue flights from Murcia to Bilbao and Asturias. Since 2019, nearly 200,000 passengers have travelled with the airline from Murcia, helping boost tourism and regional connectivity.
