Fares from Paris to Yerevan (EUR)
Yerevan is busiest in the warm months and around the holidays. Summer (June–September) draws both tourists and diaspora travel, and early January carries the Armenian Christmas peak; late winter and autumn are quieter and cheaper. The figures below are typical economy return fares in euros — the lowest usually come from the low-cost fares out of Orly or Beauvais, with Air France sitting toward the higher end.
| Month | Typical return (economy) | Demand |
|---|---|---|
| January | €180 – €320 | medium-high (Armenian Christmas) |
| February | €150 – €260 | low |
| March | €150 – €270 | low-medium |
| April | €170 – €300 | medium |
| May | €190 – €330 | medium-high |
| June | €210 – €360 | high |
| July | €230 – €380 | high |

Reference points from our own deal tracking: a strong nonstop return from Charles de Gaulle lands around €185–€270, a typical fair price is roughly €330–€340, and anything under about €200 is worth booking quickly. Cabin-only budget fares from Orly or Beauvais can dip lower still — sometimes to around €120–€160 return — if you travel light.
Airlines on this route
Nonstop (about five hours):
- Air France — nonstop from Charles de Gaulle, the full-service choice with a checked bag typically included and good onward connections.
- Transavia France — low-cost nonstop from Orly; usually among the cheaper fares if you pack light.
- Wizz Air — low-cost nonstop from Paris (Beauvais); very low headline fares, but add the coach transfer and bag charges to compare fairly.
- FlyOne Armenia — the Armenian carrier operates nonstop service on the route, often competitively priced.
One-stop (occasionally cheaper):
- Turkish Airlines via Istanbul, Aegean via Athens, or Austrian via Vienna — useful if the nonstops are full or pricey on your dates, though the journey stretches to 8–12 hours.
With so many nonstop options, a connection is rarely necessary on this route — the nonstops usually match or beat one-stop fares. Choose Air France or FlyOne for comfort and a bag included, or Transavia and Wizz if the lowest cabin-only fare is the priority.
When to book & how to save
- Book 1–3 months ahead for the best balance of price and choice; summer and holiday fares climb early as diaspora demand builds.
- Avoid the peaks if you can — July to September and early January are the dearest; February, March and November are the cheapest.
- Compare all-in prices with bags: the lowest Wizz or Transavia fares are cabin-only; once you add a checked bag, an Air France or FlyOne fare may be no dearer.
- Weigh the airport: a cheap Beauvais fare can lose its edge once you add the transfer time and coach cost from central Paris.
- Travel midweek: Tuesday to Thursday departures are usually cheaper than weekends on this route.
Arriving in Yerevan
All flights land at Zvartnots International Airport (EVN), about 12 km west of central Yerevan. There’s no train, so the usual options are the official airport taxi or a ride-hailing app (Yandex Go and gg are widely used), costing roughly €7–€12 to the centre and taking 20–30 minutes. Public bus route 201 also runs to the city for a few hundred dram if you’re travelling light. Armenia’s currency is the dram (AMD), and many flights arrive late at night, so pre-booking a transfer can save hassle.
