euNetworks launches the most direct long haul route between Paris and Milan

London - 09 July 2026 - euNetworks has today announced the delivery of a new long haul route, offering the market’s most direct connectivity path between Paris and Milan. The route, which spans 1057 km, runs on a new, diverse path through the Alps, offering a shorter alternative to the more common routes running along the coast via Lyon and Marseille.

The route has been developed to provide customers with the most direct, diverse path between the key connectivity hubs of Paris and Milan, as well as creating opportunities for the further shortening and diversifying of interconnecting routes within euNetworks’ existing network. The development follows the delivery of the company’s short, direct route connecting Frankfurt to Milan via Zurich in October 2025. The two developments combined provide the shortest cumulative routes between Frankfurt and Milan, at 771km and 1,000km.

Customers utilising the route will have the ability to connect seamlessly into euNetworks’ owned and operated metro networks in Paris, which includes 38 on-net data centres, and Milan, which includes 18 on-net data centres, as well as benefitting from onward connectivity to the company’s 600+ connected data centres across Europe.

Marisa Trisolino, CEO of euNetworks, said “The new route between Paris and Milan is a prime example of our dedication to providing customers with the most direct, diverse connectivity options in Europe. As demand for AI, cloud and data driven connectivity rises, shorter routes and diversity become increasingly crucial. Building a diverse route through the Alps takes a lot of persistence and collaboration with an extensive supplier network - euNetworks was proud to take on this challenge to deliver for our customers and we will continue to expand our network wherever our customers need it the most."
