Paris-Vatry Disney is the latest 'ambiguous' airport to be added to Ryanair's list of destinations, Skyscanner reports that it's far from being the only misleadingly named airport out there.

With both ‘Paris' and ‘Disney' in the name, travellers might expect the airport to be located in the vicinity of either the French capital or Euro Disney. However, at 93 miles from Paris' city centre, and 70 miles from Europe's ‘Magic Kingdom', Paris-Vatry Disney sets a new record in misleading airport nomenclature.

Many budget airlines use ‘secondary' airports because of the lower operational costs compared to more central airports, which allows them to offer cheaper flights. However, some carriers have come under fire for giving airports misleading names, considering they can be miles away from the city they claim to serve.

Munich's Memmingen airport is 70 miles from central Munich, Oslo Torp is 68 miles from central Oslo, and new easyJet base, London Southend, is 40 miles from the city centre (the same distance as London Stansted is from central London).

Sam Baldwin, Skyscanner Travel Editor, commented: "Depending on your final destination, regional airports can be very convenient, but travellers wanting to reach city centre locations must factor in the time and transport costs of using a regional airport, and compare them to a more central airport. If you fly to an airport with Paris in its name, you would expect it to be somewhere near Paris, but 93 miles isn't what most would call close. It's the equivalent of wanting to fly to London, but actually landing in Northampton."
