Cheap flights from Aberdeen to Paris

December comes out as the cheapest month on this route, and the price calendar on this page covers every month from September through to August, so you can see how the rest of the year compares. Winter outside the Christmas and New Year stretch is usually the quietest time to fly, while summer and the school breaks push fares up. Midweek departures tend to cost less than Friday evenings and Sunday returns, the days city-break travellers want most. If your dates are flexible, look at December first, and book a few weeks ahead for spring and summer.

EasyJet and EasyJet Europe are the low-cost names here, and Air Baltic works on the same model, with a bare ticket and extras such as bags and seat choice added at checkout. British Airways, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Scandinavian Airlines and Aer Lingus are the full-service options, where a cabin bag and a seat are normally part of the fare. Loganair Limited, Cityjet and Emerald Airlines are the smaller regional operators you are more likely to meet on part of a journey than on the whole of it. This route has direct flights, so check whether the fare in front of you is non-stop or a connection through a hub before you compare the totals.

Paris has three airports and they are not interchangeable. Charles De Gaulle is the main one, north of the city, with trains and buses into the centre and the simplest links if you are travelling onward. Orly sits south of the city and has its own rail and bus connections, so it is quick once you are on them. Beauvais Tille is the one to watch: it is well outside Paris and the transfer in is a coach or a drive, which can swallow a large part of a short trip. Check which airport your ticket names before you book a hotel, because the difference changes your whole first evening.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check the airport on your ticket, since Aberdeen flies from Dyce while Paris arrivals can be Charles De Gaulle, Orly or Beauvais Tille.
• Add up the baggage allowance on a low-cost fare before you set it against a full-service ticket.
• If your journey is split across two tickets, leave a generous gap in case the first flight runs late.
• Carry a valid passport and check the current entry rules for France before you fly.
• Decide whether the lower December fares are worth the short days, or whether you would rather pay more for spring light.
• Work out how you will reach Paris from Beauvais Tille if that is where you land.
