PARIS (Reuters) - Paris airports have seen a reduction in traffic since the attacks that killed 130 people in the French capital this month, while security has been expanded, a senior executive said.

"We are seeing an impact on traffic today, but it is too soon to say whether there is a longer-term trend," said Edward Arkwright, finance director of Aeroports de Paris, which operates both Charles de Gaulle and Orly airports.
