Cheap flights AMS to Paris

Does anyone know of any discount airlines that fly Amsterdam to Paris?

How about the KLM Cityhopper? I thought that's the budget airline of KLM?

Transavia and Myair have cheap tickets I believe, but the train may be even cheaper, a lot more environmentally friendly, and a lot less hassle. Probably nearly is a quick city centre to city centre too.

Actually I see Transavis fly from Rotterdam not Schiphol and into Orly.
As always with cheapo airlines the earlier you book the cheaper it is. And even then it is not that cheap.

Have you considered the train? It's fast and not too expensive.

The train is an option, just exploring another option. Had hoped to drive with a stop in Bruge, but the car rental (one way for one day)is the same as the cheapest airfares I could find, i.e. expensive.

IMO it's easier to take the train from city center to city center, rather than take transportation to the airport, check in, wait, fly, get bags if necessary, then take more transportation from CDG into the Parisian city center.

The Thalys train typically must be booked well in advance to get a cheap rate, unless you are lucky. But if you do, I'd definitely consider it a better option than a flight.

Try voyages-sncf.com . See all the threads here about using it. Sometimes the roundtrip is cheaper than a one-way.
