French bee, a French low-cost airline established in 2016, focuses solely on long-haul flights. The airline currently operates six routes, with four connecting to the United States. Initially, French bee began its operations with flights to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic but has since ceased this route. In 2017, it started servicing Reunion Island, a French overseas department.
In 2018, the airline expanded its US presence by launching flights to San Francisco and Tahiti, followed by New York as its second American destination. The airline transitioned from using Airbus A330-300 aircraft to exclusively operating Airbus A350 models in June 2019. According to ch-aviation data, French bee's fleet comprises four A350-900s and two A350-1000s.
The A350s are equipped with premium and economy cabins. Passengers can choose additional services such as priority security checks and WiFi access. Cirium reports that French bee has scheduled 194 flights for this month, including routes to the US and one route connecting the US with Tahiti.
