Leaders in the United States and France agreed Wednesday to expand air service between their countries over the next five years. Not only will U.S. and French airlines be able to increase the number of flights they make across the Atlantic each day, but they will also no longer be restricted in the cities they can serve. Over the next five years, the number of weekly flights will increase from 149 currently to 212 total. That equates to a service increase of nine additional flights daily in each direction. Airline service between the countries has remained stagnant since 1992, when France renounced its bilateral aviation agreements with the United States.
