Since the Paris terrorist attacks more than a month ago, the City of Light has taken a few hits to its tourism sector – from drops in attendance at the iconic Eiffel Tower to dips in visitor numbers at its world class museums.

Air France is also feeling the impact, claiming that the attacks have cost them $54 million due to a decrease of bookings. It says there are thousands of unsold seats for flights dating all the way to the springtime.

Additionally, it says passenger traffic fell 0.8 percent on short- and medium-haul flights in November. It may be three to six months before usual levels are restored.
