French bee Wins Gold in Travel Weekly Magellan Awards 2026

Paris – October 14, 2026 -- French bee has won Gold in the Overall International Carrier category of the 2026 Travel Weekly Magellan Awards, while preparing to add two seasonal long-haul routes from Paris-Orly in December 2026.

Magellan Awards rate entries on individual merit, not head-to-head

Travel Weekly has run the Magellan Awards since 2008. They cover design, marketing and service across airlines, airports, hospitality, cruise lines, destinations and travel services. A panel of travel industry professionals selects the winners. Entries are assessed individually rather than against one another, and Gold and Silver honors go to those that meet the award criteria.

Zemourda Aissaoui, Chief Commercial Officer at French bee, said the award reflects the work of the airline's teams and its aim of making international travel more accessible without cutting the quality of the experience.
