Summer Season: Air France Ready to Fly to 196 Destinations

Air France is ready to welcome their customers for all their summer travel plans. During the peak summer season, Air France will serve up to 196 destinations with a flight schedule representing on average 90% of the capacity deployed at the same period in 2019.

On the long-haul network, Air France's activity will be driven by buoyant demand for flights to North America, Africa, the Caribbean and Indian Ocean, regions that have proved resilient throughout the crisis.

In this way, Air France continues to increase capacity to and from the United States, the airline's leading long-haul destination. This summer, it will operate close to 200 weekly flights to 14 destinations, i.e. 20% more than in summer 2019.

Suspended since the beginning of the crisis, the service from Paris-Orly to New York-JFK reopened on March 27th, in addition to the service from Paris-Charles de Gaulle. In total, Air France will be operating up to 7 daily flights this summer between the two cities.

Air France and Delta will also be launching an exclusive "shuttle" service between Paris-Charles de Gaulle and New York-JFK, with 8 daily flights (6 Air France flights and 2 Delta flights).

From early June, there will be regular departures every one to two hours during the day out of Paris Charles-de-Gaulle and nearly hourly service late afternoon onwards for departures from New York-JFK.

Air France has also resumed services between Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Dallas (Texas) with up to 5 weekly flights. Finally, on May 4th, the airline will launch a seasonal route between Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Denver (Colorado) for the second year running, offering 3 weekly flights.

Air France is also strengthening its services to Canada, with a 25% increase in capacity this summer compared to pre-crisis levels. In this way, it will become the leading European airline in terms of capacity between Europe and Canada and will launch a non-stop route between Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Quebec City on May 17th, 2022.

In Africa, Air France will return to its pre-crisis levels of activity with the addition of frequencies to numerous destinations. There will be two daily flights from Paris-Charles de Gaulle to Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire) and the seasonal services to Zanzibar (Tanzania) and Banjul (Gambia) will be extended over the summer season.

Finally, Air France is maintaining almost its entire network in Asia with a reduced number of flights. Additional frequencies will be added to the flight schedule to India (Delhi, Bombay, Bangalore and Chennai) to accompany the country's reopening to international flights effective since March 27th 2022.
